Smoked LED head & tail lights Options

[Jokester]

So I'm planning to smoke out all of my lights (heads, tails, side indicators, front turn signals) and I have a couple of questions. And I'm planning on using the tint film instead of the paint cause I'm scared I might effed it up if I use paint. So...

1. Does a smoked headlights look good on a 6g celi? Cause I've seen many with smoked tails, but not with the heads. If anyone has a pic of their celi with smoked heads, it would be great if you could post it.

2. Switch to LED/SMD bulbs?? At first I thought this would be an obvious choice because with the lights being smoked, the bulbs need to be brighter to be seen thru the smoked layer. But after reading several forums, there are many controversies with using LEDs for tail light. I was just wondering what are your guys opinion on this? If I do get LEDs, I will get colored LEDs (red for stop/parking light, yellow for turning, white for reverse). So hopefully that would help with the brightness?

Btw, I'm planning on using these LED bulbs if I do get them.

Or these

In San Jose. Theres always something going on around here so I'm hoping cops have better things to do than to pull me over for a head/tail lights haha


But yea, I probably won't smoke the heads then. As for the tail, I'm also gonna put on some red reflective tape cuz I know smoking the tail would block the reflectors in the tails. Hopefully that will help?

For the tail light LED issue, correct me if I'm wrong, but I read somewhere that when its in running, the LED would only show "half" brightness, and then when the brake are pressed, the LED would show "full" brightness".
