You can't see your alloys either but that does not mean they should not look as pretty as possible.
Change your tail lights, Snoops. They do make the car look less ordinary. The longer you wait, the more expensive they become. Last year they cost me £421.50 including adaptors.
You may have a point...

If you want them get them, IMHO it makes the rear a little less "tourag"

If you do decide to change to the LED R rear lights i found this video very helpful as a step by step install guide (excluding coding)

I've decided against doing this job now. In fact, i don't suppose I will do the skirts and spoiler either. It's my wifes car, and money wasted on modding it could be money spent on getting me a new car sooner.

That is a good point mind £500 added to the pot for the next car, I dont know what the spoiler and side skirts cost but after spraying lets round it up to a £1000 in the pot.
