Default which tails looks better on my ride?

i have a chance to do a straight trade for my 06 tails vs 06 jdm tails.

the usdm are the solid red, the jdm are the clear/red.

which one looks better on the car? sorry for the dirty ride, hasnt been washed since fall!!!!!

also sorry for the close pics, the car is backed into the garage and on jackstands so i couldnt get any further.

in the middle of a huge build, taillights are the least of my concerns but i always wondered how the jdm ones would look and now i have the chance to swap.

you dont see much of the wheels in the pics, so keep in mind they are gold. doorhandles are painted body color so they are not silver anymore.

vote!













the car:

IMO opnion I would always choose the USDM tail over the JDM but on your car the USDMs look better so they get my vote.
