I like the look of "smoked" taillights and headlights myself, however, I prefer to not have them as I want to have as much light as possible up front to see farther, and give off as much light in the rear as possible to reduce the chances of some dumbass driving into me.

As for the exhaust. I haven't heard of "Carven" but I had a custom cat-back installed where the factory H-pipe was replaced with a resonated X-pipe (by Magnaflow, part # 11386, essentially a muffler in the form of an X-pipe) and then the rest of the exhaust was replace with 2.5" pipe, eliminating the factory resonators and mufflers, and it sounds pretty sweet, especially after 3000 RPM or so.

Eventually I plan to do the high-flow cats from Solo Performance which will deepen the tone further; when I get to this point I am going to see what it sounds like with just the high-flow assemblies - which have built-in resonators - installed (so basically just straight pipe after the high-flow assemblies, with a straight-through X-pipe, etc.).
