keep in mine it will look darker than that proly.

ya thats why im on the fence. smoked looks good with a black car, but i dunno about my lighter color, makes them stand out more in a bad way? or look more sleek and mean?

When ever i think of smoked headlights i think of ricer covers...soo idk

+1 smoked always looks better imho. You'll also need to do the fog lights if you decide to go the smoked route. I really like smoked headlights

I went the cheaper route and got some smoked pre-cut vinyl overlays for my headlights and fogs. Looks very dark during the day but my HID's shine through just fine at night. I personnaly think the smoked look would look killer on your car but I don't like the clear corners. I like keeping the ambers.

Example of what I did:

well i decided to go ahead and smoke them myself with the help of my buddy. We smoked them to my liking and it cost 1/6 the price of new ones. Spray tint, clear and wet sand.

I must admit they turned out great, really finish off the front of the car.
