Valenti/Helix Tail Lights

Had trouble finding some good references of the Black edition and the Gold Edition Valenti's on a WRB BRZ. I am debating between the two, I'm just concerned the Black Edition is just a little too dark... Thoughts?

Very true. That's not I was worried about, more was looking for references and thoughts on the actual darkness of the black edition vs. the gold edition; and along that people's experiences with the darker black edition.

Thank you though, I appreciate it.

Just remember what your local state laws are on dark taillights & whether or not you need that side reflector. Some states require side reflector on taillights. Also maybe illegal for tails to be too dark. Jus my two cents!

Thanks, I appreciate it. California law can be so tricky. Seems like I need side reflectors that show red and the tailight must emit red light (obviously). Unsure about the darkness; I think it may have to have a hue of red though...
