I was in the same boat and made a thread on this a few months ago: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1495403

Some more pictures there for comparison's sake, I haven't ordered them yet, but I think I decided on red. Another big factor was the fact that the big "Tom's" logo is much more visible on clear, which I don't like.

I definitely prefer the reds on a WRB.

I really dislike the red. I think it's too much contrast with the bright blue. But, I like a consistent look all around the car--clear headlights, taillights, and side markers (as much as is legal), and if there's chrome, I don't like gold wheels. Go with what you like!

Clear is more rare. For now. You always have the option to go red or smoke in the future as well. I

Both are nice I have the red on my WRB. Ties the red interior pieces in. Was thinking of going with red brakes also so it's all more fluid.

the below quote makes a really good point..

when they first came out, i discussed it with a couple people.. the general non-toyobaru community seems to like the red's for a mostly-stock car, with the clears being preferred for heavily modded cars..
