The red brake light really pulls the red wrap around forward. Ties in with the calipers etc.

personal choice though!

Agree, if I had a dark C4S I would leave it alone. I love the RED in the back, looks great. Leave it alone.

No, the standard third brake light is different from the brake light in the Aerokit Carrera rear spoiler.

I'm thinking a smoked one might look good on my car too...especially with my RS wing.

Yours is artic silver right? I think the clear would look nice.. I'm leaning towards the smoke for my seal grey.. Who knows, maybe the contrast in the clear will look nice also.. what to do, what to do...

I installed the 'smoked' version in my Seal Grey Targa and it looks great. I don't have a picture here at the office, but I am very pleased with the choice.

Regards,
Dwayne

Come on, guys.
It is a tiny brake light for $120. By far the cheapest mod to date on my car.
You have cars that cost $80K-$150K.
Just go for it and get one! You will love it.

You haven't done the $30 clear side markers yet?
The $25 bumper plugs?
The $18 Rennlist Membership?
The $8 Rejex?
The free orange cap mod?

You're rolling in money, but can't afford a rennlist membership?
