Post by: howlingmoon on 13 October 2009, 19:56: I agree with Neil! The standard tail lamps are nice as it is. All depends on the price of the LEDs... hi hi hi I just love my car! Just thinking of painting the Monza Shadows just like the alloys in Neil's post...

Same as the standard lights but clear smoked glass looks better than red on a red car ?

Post by: p3eps on 13 October 2009, 20:04: Errr... are these not just in black and white as someone has done an effect in photoshop - just like the background and the windows are black and white too?!

The wheels look amazing - but it would be very important to get the red rim exactly the same colour as the car otherwise it would look stupid!

Couple of people did try spraying the lights themselves... but you can ALWAYS tell! but to the untrained eye is merely a pass.
