Default Murdered Rear tails which one do you like?

Looking to get opinions on the following two tail light options for my car. NOT RED tail lights are better etc. or your opinion of Red VS Black. I respect your opinion but that is not what the thread is trying to achieve.

Please don't comment if you think that tinted tails are ugly or they are illegal etc etc.
I respect your opinion but again that is not what the thread is trying to achieve.


Which one do you prefer? By the way this is a 2012 Centennial Editions Grand Sport so the theme as you know is all black including the wheels.



Professionally tinted tails:



Adjure Onyx LED tails:

I like the fully tinted ones better. That LED bar look always looked kind of ugly to me.

You need to blackout all of the lights.

Stock looks better.

But best is the tinted LED tails front JWMOTIRING. Look black but are brighter than stock.

Fully tinted ones have a much better overall look.

Thanks everyone, looks like a landslide. The poor adjure Led lights got no love.
I bought the car with them and always thought it looked a bit busy in the back with the white led lights peering through the bar. So I bought the tinted ones to compare. Wife likes the adjure but she likes white pretty cars with red lights so I cant trust her opinion... thanks everyone for helping me decide!!.

Please continue to comment!

What is the purpose of the led's? Are they your brake lights and are they red?

^^Yea, the leds are red, and are very visible.
These are apparently not cheap either...see the ad for them:

Why not just go all the way and remove the lights completely for a smooth tail?
