Recieved my smoked headlights on thursday. only got a chance to fit them yesterday. Think they really make a difference. gave the car a good clean and polish, but its dirty already.
Also got some new reggie plates, think they look better now. And fitted my bonnet lifters. Some pics:
what you think?

buy some clear rear lights, mask off the reverse light/indicator area then spray the rest of the lights the same red as the standard lights. Then you'll have standard looking rear lights with clear indicators

I think thats a good idea, not seen that before now, unless i havent looked hard enough.
I can get mesh cheap enough, just dont wanna ruin my mirrors...

thanks for the comments peeps.
to be honest i didnt think the back lights were that bad. got them like that and had a set of standard ones from my old corsa. tried them on but a kept the tinted ones. especially for the fact that red corsas are common in my area, so want to keep mine different (eg black wheels, tinted lights).
might give them a try though. im just tryin to think of ways to keep the red and black theme, but keeping it subtle.
cheers guys.
