Default Clear Tail Lights

I have a 97 GSR that's dark green. I know that clear tails are usually pretty gay but I think they're ok on a "finished" car. It's lowered, big wheels, no gay spoiler, and a nice kit. I'm either gonna do black housing altezzas or clears. I plan on doing the red led bulbs. I think it looks gay with pink bulbs. It would look all red at night and clear during the day. What do you think?

Do black housing, it is your car, but I would leave them stock.

Clear tail lights are VERY dangerous.

Buy them, have someone follow your car in the bright sunlight, and see how much he can see your brake lights.

As far as I know the law states that your rear lights must not only emit red light, but also reflect red light.

HTH.
