Looks good! Would need to see it in person to make a final call. You could plastidip the thing too perhaps?
MOD: changed side marker silver part to black using 3M Black reflective tape
3
So I was looking at the sort of silly silver side marker that is on the side of the car in front of the front doors.
I wish it would light up during turn signals but it's just an eyesore IMO.
Since it's a silver piece on top of a black piece - sort of looked out of place so I tried an experiment:
Cover over the silver part with black 3M reflective tape.
I sort of like it - what do you think ?
I like them for safety too as the black tape reflects white light when a headlight shines on them.....

This is the 3M 680 Black reflective tape looks like in normal and under lighting:
