opinion? Pics?
Are the clear tails at importvision any good or are they cheesy? I like the smoked but on a white car I think the clear might look good.

havent been a fan of those clears. im sure the quality is good. Look out for the leader stamp, "Hella" for quality on these cars.
i would label the clears as cheesy but its pretty euro at least considering the out-landish things ive seen done to cars over there.
i personally prefer smoked or the euro red tails(q.pilot & others have those here) depending on car color and the look you are trying to achieve. But its your car so do what you think looks best for you.

Are your front lights smoked? your corners look a bit smoked in your sig... your tint helps pull it together too, but where I am you can only do 30% on the front.. so I may have to do that all around so it doesn't look butchered. shame.. I like being stealthy ![Smile](https://www.audiworld.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
if you have a pic of your car showing more of the back you should post

my front RS2 lights are smoked. it was a DIY job that turned out well cept i like how others left it silver around the elipsoid and wish i would have done that. my front corners are the porsche 993 corners that were part of the RS2 front. i bought them clear and had my painter friend take them to work and smoke them and they look like i bought them that way. my tint is only 30% or maybe 28% but no darker. I have the black interior so it helps make it look more dark.

that light on the left is a rear fog...and yes you just should have one on that left side on only. dont leave it on in town some cop may pull you over thinking you have a brake light out.

of the road. If you're lucky enough to find a set, they make a good match. Only problem is you have to buy two sets, and are then left with a set of inners that have no fog light at all.
And I definitely vote smoked. Clear looks a wee-bit sushi on the rears...like a civic.
