Those look really nice

I'd love to see them with a white or silver paint job.

You wish is granted, I have a clear taillight lens, but I didn't like the way it looked, mostly because I need a much brighter red CREE LED bulb, so for now I just have the turn indicators, with extreme bright CREE LEDs

One of my stock red ones ended up with a hole in it somehow this morning. Looks like these are going to replace it

Part of me wants to do an LED conversion while I'm at it.

Time to break out the soldering iron.

If you do a LED Conversion I'd love to see how you do it. I've been looking for a tutorial on how to do this with a PreGen. Take pictures!

Absolutely

I'm in the process of basically restoring the bike (I bought it for $700 in somewhat rough shape) so on the list of things is a paint job in a weekend of two, an HID conversion with a square halo to match our style light (gonna have to make that custom), and an LED conversion on all the other lights. I plan on making YouTubr guides as I go along. I'll probably add LED running lights along the bottom of the bike, too, just for fun. Possibly a fender deletion with the turn signals on the sides of the brake light?

Yes! Definitely take pictures. I was wanting to know if anyone did HID conversions on these bikes.. now I know haha. It'd be awesome to see the square halo come together.

You got it. I'll be doing the paint in about a week or two, after that I'll be tackling the LED conversion. Probably after that the HID.

There are quite a few sets of smoke/clear corners on eBay for only about $10, Haven't seen any brake lenses yet.
