*Request*Pix of Cleared smoked corners(headlights)

I'm getting my headlights cleared tomorrow. I was just wondering how a TL-S headlights would look cleared and smoked corner vs just cleared on a WDP TL. Still deciding if i want to smoke the corners. JNC said if my cars white, it will look better smoked.

Brian do you have clear bra on your car? Your car looks like it has no scratches or paint chips.

Nope, no clear bra, the grill and bumper are pretty new so they are flawless.
