Do flat clear side markers exist?

Anyone aware of side markers that are clear but are not JDM which means they are flush with fenders and don't stick out all silly like and ruin the flow?

I want that. I'd appreciate any points in the right direction.

I've been after the same thing for my Asphalt FR-S. From the research I've done and the answers I got from a few people that sell the JDM ones, none exist as of right now - looking at you Diode Dynamics

Yup I'm looking for them as well. I hate the bump on the JDM ones.

It's not that it doesn't work for me, but if there is a flat option in the market why wouldn't I go after that?

Yeah, I'm in the same boat - I like the clear side markers, but I prefer to look of them being flush with the fender. I think it's easy to assume that there should be an option like this, so I think the OP was just asking.

I'll definately pick up a pair of the JDM ones at some point if there still isn't an option that matches the flat, factory side markers.

I think I tend to place a little extra value on OE products. It sort of guarantees the quality of the part and makes resale a bit easier. But sometimes the aftermarket just makes nicer stuff. I don't even notice the little sticky-outy bits on my JDM clear side markers. The color alone makes the whole car look better, and the quality is great. I also have the OE mudguards and TRD cold-air intake. I did roll with a Perrin 2" aluminum antenna, so I really can't talk sH!t about aftermarket products. :-)

I hope these big plans are all in Q1 2014. That would give you Q2-Q4 to swim around in all that money you'll make from us
