Vote: Led smoked vs Stock tail lights

So i just got my car back from body shop. Wasted money getting trunk shaved and they noticed i had my Led tails in the trunk and convinced me to get them black. Well i came in as they were doing their job and i stopped them where they were at and well they are darker than smoked but not black. It's a very muggy day out so these are the best pictures i could take. My vote is still on the stock tails. I like the faint black lines that go across the light and i like the way they look when they are on vs the led. To each their own. Here are the pics i got though.

just not sure how to make it look great on my silver car. the smoked ones are better for a dark car. I may sell them if anyone wants them.
 


Those stockers look like they have condensation.
If you don't like the sleekness and perfect tint of the LEDS.....sell them. Someone will snatch those up in a heartbeat.
 
150 shipped is what im thinking. Nobody cares how much you wasted on something though, but it was 180 when i bought them i put 100 into them to have them professionally painted.
 


Okay i got some time in the garage to perfect my pictures and lighting. I know you will ALL say led is better but i'll share anyways.

Here is a pic with no flash of the led one

Just for fun, my old ass with leds that are red, They are brighter looking but look too red and candy looking in sunlight to me ( I wonder how they would look with little black pinstripes going across like the stock lights

Stock

I know my license plate is posted in the pictures. I don't care because i keep it in the garage if anyone wants it that bad take it lol



Too me, the main difference between the stock ones and the led ones are that there are horizontal lines going across on the stock ones and of course led is whole different (MONSTER.....that word may be funny to some people.. lol ... ) ( almost wanna buy red ones again and try that.... then again maybe not

I guess im just not sure what to do right now with the keyhole being shaved and just having these smoked out led lights and an inlay, i feel it needs more ill figure it out though. thanks for looking and hopefully these pictures will help someone make the right decision on what look they want to go for.

Damn. Those LED tail lights look like pure sex.

I already have tinted LED tail lights, but they are a different style than what you got and I've always wanted the ones you have.

If you do plan on selling them, I might buy them from you.
