Smoke is lighter and is still good at night.&nbsp\\; Dark grey is darker and not easy to see through at night.&nbsp\\; I prefer the smoke.

Same idea as gambler. Just got mine this afternoon in smoke. Much lighter than the stock dark grey 'deflector' that came on my strett glide

Dark grey looks better IMO. And if it short enough that you are not looking through it, it doesn't matter.

As Gambler stated dark grey is harder to see thru at night. Go to the Clearview sight and check out the colors, you will be able to see the difference. www.clearviewshields.com
