HELP! Valenti vs Winjet Taillights

I have a Firestorm Red FRS and I am debating between taillights right now. I am not too thrilled with smoked black lights with the car (which I currently have), and I am looking towards darker red tails. I'm looking at both the red and chrome Valentis or the red Winjet. Anyone have thoughts or experience with these (especially on a Firestorm color car)?

I could really use your help friends!

Valenti


Winjet

I heard that BRZ headlights don't fit in an FRS due to spacing issues. If not, I'd be all over those. The BRZ has way better stock heads!

I still have my JDM Tom's red tails in and still absolutely love them. They complete the car's lighting along with the rear fog brake light in the rear.

Have you had any issue with leaking? I've read that this is an issue with the TOMs.
