Default which headlights?

I've got a red 96 GT and i want to put new headlights on it. The stock ones are getting that foggy/white look to them and i'm not to fond of it. Since my windows are lightly tinted and the car is a nice red color, i was thinking about getting smoked/dark grey headlights, and corners, but the idea of getting a set of clearer ones with a dark background on them has crossed my mind as well. Any suggestions?

On ebay there are "jdm" headlights that are smoked or chrome, I dont know how they work or if they fit or whatever but they look really good. I'd look into that if I were you.

i have ultra clears on mine, but i think being that it is a red car and your windows are tinted, you should prob go with smoked headlights

Default RE: which headlights?

anyone know how to clean up that oxidation (cloudy/foggy) look on the stock headlights? I have blackouts and I can use all the xtra light I can get. I installed some silverstar bulbs on the headlights and fog lights. Makes big difference, but the foggy stock headlights still aren't very bright through the blackouts, and it's a pain to take them off everynight.
