   i bought my saxo last week as a project, it has come with naff lexus rear lights. should i try to tint them or get some tinted originals, or save for some jewels. any thought?

   Too right tinted standards all the way!
   
   Little trick.....Get a pair of tights and cut them at the top of the leg then slide the light cluster into a leg, its an extrmely tight fitting which looks amazing and you cant tell theres a material on top until you feel it.
   
   The hex design of the tights actually projects light and the police cant do anythign about it.
   
   Give it a go, i promise ul be pleased with the results!

   Best rear lights I've seen are these:
   
   
   
   M3 style tail lights. Makes it look much more modern.

    we had a 106 in last week that had this, gave us all something to chuckle at every time we walked past it. What type of tights would you recommend, i tried mandys fishnets on my lights and they looked terrible

    I have lexus lights in mine, cheap and tacky i think they look, i got sum snake eye tinted ones (£50 ) but also had to spend £35 quid for original base plates for the bulbs to fit, worth every penny to replace lexus ones haha
