I personally am a fan of red-outs, or IS-F tails...smoked tails remind me of the old GTO tinted covers people used to put on their Mustangs or Civics, does not fit a $45,000 Lexus...

Honestly I think the IS-F tails would look great...

IS F or eBay tails are the only ones I like. Although, since black is part of your theme I'd maybe get the vinyl to see if you like them. Then you can spray them if you like the smoked look.

I love the flat clear coat on taillights. I've seen the Five Axis ISF in person with its flat cleared taillights and they look awesome. It's one of those small, subtle details that makes a huge difference on the overall look of the car's rear.

I think it'll look great smoked, especially with the black wheels

not a fan with smoked tails... i think you are better off either leaving it alone, or getting the ebay/is-f tails

lol none of the cars are mine i wanted starfire pearl also but ended up getting tungsten pearl.
as for the flat tails you just spray a matte clear on the tails
im goin to have black rims also by the end of the month thats why i want to know what would look better

yeah, i loved the starfire pearl. I was actually considering to repaint the entire car starfire, but it wouldn't be worth it. oh well, i'm thankful that i even have an IS

personally, i like the smoked look on the taillights, especially with that first pic. the red is still quite visible, which looks really good on a light colored car . javy's looks really great, too, as it's subtle but still gives a nice effect when looking at the rear. can't go wrong either way.
