I have a silver a6 and was wondering if anybody had clear taillights maybe with leds? Everyone likes clear corners but why not make them match front and rear?

I would stay away from clear tails, they look too ricey, go smoked!

OOOO

Never seen clears on a silver Audi, but I think smokes look wierd unless you have a red or black/dark car, clears do look ricey, like Altezzas, eww.

A pic of the tails would help people, you could even try photoshopping them on and A6 to get a visual aid.

I think smoked tail lights on a silver car would be sexy, especially if it had had gun metal rims.

thinking about it more smoked would actually match the license plate cover thingy, clear wouldn't look right after looking at the above pic.

If you are gonna order the clear tail lights...then don't forget to order under body neon lights (purple in your case, as the car is silver), a gold plated V-Tech badge, and a TRD sticker. All this will make it look complete.http://www.audiforums.com/micons/m13.gif

Go with smoked. and make sure they are Hella and not some OEM tails tinted. My A6 is silver and as soon as I put them on it made a world of a difference. Matches the area surrounding my license plate frame.
