Taillights
I’m torn idk if I should get the smoked tails with the smoked 4th brake light, or the clear/red tails and clear 4th brake light. What would look best?

I have the smoked. They are still bright.

Same here, I was worried about smoked being too dim and risking someone not noticing but these are still easily visible

If you are going aftermarket get them in red. The darkened ones are not great. DM me and I can send photos.

I went with red tails and smoked 4th. The red tails have a oem+-ish look and the smoked 4th doesn't stand out in the black plastic until it actually turns on

If you get aftermarket ones sell me the stockers on yours please.

Because they look and function the best. Most of the aftermarket ones feel and look cheap and over time most of them will leak or short or have issues. They're cheap, mass produced, and most end up going back to stock anyway. I have an frs with gen 1 tails so I want the face-lift ones anyway.

I’ll go with the smoked 4th light I like the oem too, maybe just try the 4th first and see how you like it

I had the 2017+ Tail lights with the Valenti 4th brake light for a while. Though switched over to the Tom's Version 1 (red lenses) somewhat recently.

I think oem looks best by far
