That is the theme to my jeep, i wouldn't have it any other way! Oddball, from one black kj owner to another, blacked out tails with the turn signals like you were talking about is a great combo, i can post some pics on mine if you'd like to see.

I think you might be confused? I am leaving the stock tail lights in. I've seen what you're talking about and I don't like them. I do however think the clear front t/s's look great on a black KJ, and although I've never seen the smoked lens in person, I'm thinking they too would look great.

Thanks.

The smoked t/s look really good on black KJs, especially the Limited/Renegade models.
