I think it would depend on the color of the car as to whether or not it would look good.

Notice on the back of the base white FIT, the red stands out, and not the white:

And on the back of the Sport red FIT, the white stands out:

I think the smoke would look best on the base black, to match up with the smokey backdrop of the headlamps.

The Smoked colored Tail lamps would look the best on a darker colored Fit`s....as were the Non LED ones would look better Red, Orange, White.. ect ect.. it also comes down to personal preferance too.

The Tail lights are OEM JDM LED ones that have a small single filament bulb added to the lower section and then they send the lights off to get the upper section of the light that normaly is clear smoked... other than that,,, nothing too fancy..

Maybe I'll just get my stock ones smoke for now...I can't justify spending $650 for LED tails for a few months.

Yea those tails are a little too rich for my blood.

Has anyone smoked their stock headlights yet?
Is there a DIY out there?

Well, I decided in the end to just buy a set of tails from norihito (eBay). I'm thinking about doing a tut to make them look just like the ones here by applying some lamin-x film. I feel a bit nervous about cutting a hole in a set of $400 tail lights, but I think i'll be fine.

Do the smoke LED tail light have any fogging or water issue
