I have OEM LCI car so I have the red blinkers stock for my tail lights. I have blue LED sidemarkers but I came across some red sidemarker bulbs. They look good on my car but I went back to blue. But since red>blue>yellow don't match well I was thinking of two options.

Install the red sidemarkers again and get red LED front turn signals.

OR

Get white LED for my tail light ($150) and get white sidemarkers and white front turn signals.

Dude, red turn signals will get you pulled over real quick. Why is that even a thought?

Yeah, I would avoid red at all costs. That's just asking for it. If you must change it up, get the white led sidemarkers and white led turn signals. That's what I'm running now. Best part is that it's legal here!
