seems like all clear taillights looks crap on a dark car,
smoked/red is the way to go unless someone proves me wrong

this might be useful, not exactly broad daylight though:
yea the brake light and turn signals are easily read in broad daylight. if you have your lights on when it's cloudy, the taillight running light looks fine but yea in broad daylight it looks kinda pinkish. as he said though, there's no need to have your lights on in broad daylight.

I was thinking of swapping out my tail lights too since I'm out of warranty and still having the condensation issue even though they were already replaced once. Would these fix the condensation problems or is it completely unrelated?

Aftermarket lights won't necessarily guarantee no issues. However, of well made they shouldn't. I haven't had issues with my toms. But I have never had my car in the rain or car wash

All those tail light are great, but I wasn't sure which one is the best look for my DGM BRZ.

What would you guys recommend??
Pics of car with tail light will definitely will help me a lot to decide!

Thanks
