Default Anyone have smoked tails on a Gold GS??

I'm curious about the look since I'm wanting to get the black chrome emblems.

post pics of your current setup ohmike, what other mods will you be doing to go along w/ the smoked tails? if you smoke the tails you'll have to balance it all around the car w/ other dark features. otherwise it'll look odd. as long as you stick to 1 theme, and apparently its the smoked dark look..... then go for it, but keep it uniformed.

I'll get pics up before too long, but my 98 gs4 is bone stock at the moment. I'm thinking smoked tails, black chrome emblems, and darker rims (BMW M5 smoked chrome type finish). I know it's a little unconventional, but I belive that if I do it carefully, it could be done in a very tasteful manner.

Also, L tuned grille so that the only chrome on the GS will be the bottom trim stripe and the window perimeters.

Edit: Uptown, I found some pics of your GS; it is amazing. The all black look is very clean and your Q45 retrofit is absolutely amazing.
