Default Pics request: Aerotect taillight smoke vinyl, Thanks!!

I'm planning to get the taillight + reflector smoke vinyl combo from Aerotect, but i don't know which color to go w/, steel or smoke? I'm kinda worry that the smoke one will look too dark~ Does anyone have pictures of their smoked taillights? I wish i can compare them before purchasing~~ Thanks alottttt!!

The smoke vinyl is pretty complicated to install. I did it myself because I'm in Florida and AeroTect is in Arizona or somewhere. I have a few small gaps and what not because I didn't use a heat gun and I did the install by myself. Still doesn't look too bad. I just posted pics of my car in another thread because someone was asking what they looked like on a Black Sapphire Pearl car. Hope this helps.

I think the smoked tails look best on (Obsidian/SGM). FTW

Redouts (SFP, GFM, TP...etc.) FTW

IMO

I didn't read the thread at all, so if it's too late, go screw yourself. :P

Mine: black/dark aerotect vinyl
Wife's: gray/not as dark aerotect viny

I can't remember what the colors are called
