I'd like to get one or the other, I think it looks a bit better with the strip in the middle but I'm unsure exactly what they mean by tinted and ghosted.

Which one is cheaper with or without a core?

And if it's ghosted vs tinted vs nothing...

I'd really just like it painted black to match my stock black car, but I want strip visible with the lights off. Would the tint and ghosted options cover the the led strip when it's not on?

And showstopper shows the same prices for ghosted or tinted or none of the above, while oracle shows price increases on tinted and an even pricer step up for ghosted.

Wish more images were available for previews... on BOTH sites. They're both very lacking

Trust me, Showstopper is in another arena. I've owned both, I like the way Oracle looks but they are junk, the tabs break and the leds go out.

Here is a pic of Showstoppers lights on mine. Pete is a great guy also, you won't regret going with them.

I'm actually in the market for one set as well... I'm glad you are bringing this question up....
And could ot agree more $300 price point for a set is way to high...

showstoppers is $275 or $375 without a core.
oracle are only $170 with no core... BUT that's not painted or tinted or anything. once you add the paint its $240 minimum. then if you also wanted tint or ghosting thats ANOTHER additional charge... with tint is $330. with ghosted option its anywhere from $270 to $470

the way oracle has it listed is way too confusing, too

I might just buy an LED strip and modify my sidemarkers myself. then get them tinted black around the strip... the paint would be too expensive to do myself

I have seen AAC once going on sale here on the forum painted for $199... From other resellers.... Ghosting feature add maybe other $50 tops....
Speaking of quotes I will shoot PM to them see if any current sales going on...

So just from couple of min searching .. I will correct my self.. $199 not painted ... add another $50 for paint and you have your new set of AAC concept side markers for $249.... also you get to keep your stock ones in case you need to switch back. Most of you guys probably know this already...
So unless, some of the re-sellers have promotions going on, and can give better deal then this... (I don't know worth a shot, maybe 4th of July sale coming up...lol)

so tint and or ghosting is additional cost... here are some links:
http://www.automotivelightstore.com/...rkersSale.aspx

and from here on the forum (check the last page, post is still active and price as well):

I bought mine ghosted from AAC for $250 with no core. I was considering showstoppers, but their pricing is too high. Plus I sold my stock sidemarkers for $50, so it actually cost me $200 even. I get a lot of compliments on them.
