I say smoke the whole thing. Of course I think redding out the orange portion looks better than smoked. Especially with a black SC.

I would either red out the top or black out the whole thing. I think either would look better than stock as the 92-94 tails really date the car (in my opinion).

Depending on how much you have blacked out on your car, the smoked tails can look pretty amazing. I love mine. It looks best because I have blacked out the chrome window trim, the corners, the highbeams, and the inner headlight housings.

i think i've seen the top half blacked out... and i thought it looked sweet... also, all red looks pretty good too... i really dont care for all smoked out tail lights, but then again, my car is dark green and it would look different than on your black 1...

Why don't you upgrade to a newer style. As mentioned above, the 92-94 tails really date the car...

i think those all red tails look hot on your blck SC, since you have black wheels, the all red stands out.... IMO it would be too much black if you would have smoked them out..

An idea I considered doing was taking apart the tails and just lightly smoking the inside diffuser piece.

edit: if not the diffuser piece, maybe the back side of the lens.
