Need some opinions

I need your opinion on this guys, I was thinking of smoking the white stripe on the taillight & getting smoked LED sidemarkers? Will it look nice?

Here is a pic of my car, if you want to see more pics, click on the link in my sig.



What do you guys think? Do it or leave it as it is?

Thanks

Both ways will look great, but if I had to choose Id say leave it as is.

Hey bro .....

I contemplated this myself not too long ago .......

I ended up leaving the side marker as is and changed the front side reflector to smoke. Much more tasteful that way ....... the only thing I would change is the trim around the windows/doors. "Shadowline" baby!

If you want the "murdered out" look then smoke the signal ..... I'm not really a fan of the look myself. Looks great as is so ...... depends on what you want to accomplish/theme you're after.

By the way, ACS rear window spoiler? Car is lookin' great either way!!
