I have the smoked Valenti's in right now, but it doesn't fit the look I want for my car and definitely doesn't match my OEM headlights.

They fit fine, the wiring is different.

I agree, smoked tails don't look that good unless the headlights have been blacked out (and by that I mean having the inside painted so the lights still function fine, not with tint which kills your output which is plain stupid).

The red chrome Valenti's would look great on that color though.

Hell no on the Tom's. Most boring looking tails for this car by far...

Go w/ the Valenti,

Price is good, warranty is good
They had some issues before which makes them pay more attention to their quality now!

Also, price for Tom's is almost double of what you are paying for Valenti

I totally agree, I use stock tails but LED lights to clean up the splash of yellow that yellow bulbs cause on my whiteout. I think it looks great, though I did switch to clear sidemarkers again with amber LEDs to make it clean looking until activated.

The problem with OEM tails is that they look like Altezza tail lights which I despise. I hate too much chrome in my tails and head lights. I prefer more black in my headlights and more dark red in my tails so I choose the Winjet(JDM style) headlights and (red)tails.
