Helix tail lights vs. toms taillights. Red vs Smoke - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

86wtywly · 10-25-2015, 11:01 AM

I have a whiteout frs. Do smoke taillights look good on white cars or red ones?

Comparing helix with tom's, which one should I go?

Help me! Thx guys!

I'm not a fan of the helix lights so I would say the red toms, but it's your car so get what you want.

I want to ask for other's suggestion since I have hard time making decision haha
Toms looks nice but too normal I guess? So is smoked color looking good on white cars? I worry about that it might look like a panda but I really love smoked color

Are you not capable of forming your own opinion on which tails you prefer? If not, what about leaving them stock until you do? If you then decide on one only to find out you don't really like it, you can try another. Don't rely on other people's opinions regarding what to do to YOUR car. Everyone will likely say something a little different and in the end it should be YOUR decision what you do to YOUR car.

Good point but people can tell me if there is any issues to those taillights and what brands I should avoid purchasing

Red is a safe choice for sure. However, smoked one looks aggressive but the car might look like a panda lmao

they do look more aggressive, but i always feel like smoked lenses are harder to see during the day

Want a set of these. However, the turning signal is less obvious than the stock taillights. Will it affect the safety of driving?

Anyone has helix taillights in the forum?
