My hyper darkslook pretty "light" from a distance. I think they would both look pretty darn good on your car, but I'm leaning towards the hyperlight for red. If you do a search there's a red T/A with the lights and it looks sweet. Maybe try having somebody photochop both on for a comparison.

here's an angle shot to show the "dark" part.

well i have seen them both in person and the hyperdark does have a similiar caolor to the hyper lights exept the hperdarks seem to have a more polished gleem to them. so the dark part reflects nicely. i am leaning my self to the darks. the hyperlights match the stripes. but the dark matches my headlights. front fasia my rear panel my tints etc... but more opinions are welcome. 100 views and 4 replys. come on guys.

I'm on the fence too. I was going to buy a set of Prostars but I keep looking at these damn Evo's and Tony's car and I just can't decide. 18's and I could still go 305/35/18 Nittos on the backs.....Hmmmmmmm

i think the darks would match your scheme a little better with the stripes and black halos. a photoshop of the lights would help though
