Default Redout Tails vs. IS-F Tails (Poll)

What do you think looks better? Our stock 06-08 tails with redouts or IS-F tails with the clear blinker box?

I'm undecided at the moment, what do you think and why?

Here's an awsome pic with some IS's with Redouts, some with IS-F tails:

to me either one looks really good.

the redouts are alot cheaper but if you want to spend alot then go with the ISF tails (they arent f-sport)

there are other companies that make LED tails that have the clear blinker like the ISF tails. they are alot cheaper and they come with inner and outer lamps on both sides.

heres a like of them if you wanna see...

ISF tails ftw, redouts look too plain and stocks are ugly.

Wait they didn't make that apart of the F-Sport line did they?

Redouts all the way. The redouts to me give the car's rear a cleaner look. The ISF tails look better on the siver and white IS. But when it comes to black, redouts are a must.

But for me, I like the amber

Why spend so much money on IS-F tails when most people wouldn't even notice a difference? The red-outs are a nice, simple, cheap fix and they look really good. Spend the money on something more noticeable!

i rather get the F tailights or smoked out my stocks. Redouts over-rated. No offense to others

If I had the extra $$$$ I'd get a set of IS-F tails. I really like the clear blinker box. Red outs are nice but I'll just settle with the OEM tails with the amber for now.

If two cars are next to each other (as in the pic), people can see the difference. Non IS drivers may not notice it. If you want something really noticeable, get some wheels
