Blackline vs shadowline taillights - LCI

What is the difference between the blackline & the shadow line?

After doing some reading I came to a conclusion that the shadow line are the same as the oem except with a light tint to it. Is that correct?

Does anyone have any pictures of blackline vs shadowline for reference even if they're for an older model.

I'm thinking of getting the blackline taillights but want to be sure I'm making the right decision.

I haven't seen the shadowline one for f30 yet. I dont think they are out yet. I'm on the same boat for either one but can't find the shadowline to compare. Also I hope they come on led or the do a version for the LCI one.
