RRP owners - Type S taillights suggestions

Looking to personalize my '05 Acura TL (I will try to get pics up soon once I am a full member), I have decided that one of the things I like the most to mod are the Type-S taillights and side markers.

However, I am having trouble deciding which color would look best for an RRP. (black/clear, black/smoked, black/red, white/red). Any suggestions or pictures?

Also, is there a difference in Type-S headlights that I should get if I get taillights and side markers?

Personally, I think you should just get OEM type s tail lights and leave em alone, looks so clean and simple on that color of car, or any color tl for that matter.

I really like that, is that the red and black? And around what ballpark should I expect it to cost? Also, did you get them from eBay and self install or go to an Acura dealership?

That's a nice job done on the RRP. I think the tails look perfect on there.

Actually just ordered myself some yesterday off eBay, just $116. Hopefully not too difficult to put on.
