My GSI is pretty standard at the moment and I dont want to make a hash of modifying it so want to think properly about the colour scheming for it before its bodged up! I currently have clear rear lights (the proper ones with the red stripe) and otherwise apart from a backbox the usual GSI spec.

Can anyone who has modifyed a white B post some pics or suggestions? I was thinking black rims with a chrome lip, black angel eyes etc but obviously that wouldnt work with the clear rears! Any thoughts would be great!

Cheers guys

Post pics of your rear lights?

I like white wheels on white cars, looks so sweet. With a GSI i would just put wheels on and lower it and spend any other money you have on making it perfect condition, ie a respray maybe.

Irmscher Smoked rear lights
FK or Arteb Crystal Smoked headlights
Post 97 rear bumper
Speedlines in Anthracite

Simple but effective.

Thats mint! I probably wouldnt go for completely black alloys though, think I might prefer the chrome lip. What would people suggest are the best rear lights against the white?

IMO smoked lights all round and some sort of alloys sprayed anthracite and colour coded door handles/ boot lock ( possibly roof rails and scuttle panel)

Job done

Im guessing the Irmscher rear lights are quite expensive new and rare second hand then? And a nice set of black 16's sounds like a good plan now!
