   led lights generally only really look good on highly modded cars or showcars imo

    ok do this....
    
    either buy the ones from that pic, they look pretty awesome!
    
    or here's my opinions..
    
    LED lights io'd only buy them like sum1 said before hand if i had a major heavy modded car with an extreme kit. Otherwise they look nida tack and you can save that extra £50 as they cost about £100 ish on them and buy something else. So on a silver car no don't go for it.
    
    Get JDM's i have a silver car and i got JDM's on mine real cheap to and offer many modding options on them to make them different. If you want a pic just ask il send u one.or put up here.
    JDM's are simple but nice looking 3 different sized cricles on them and are very bright stand out. Makes my 1.1 look better from the rear. they go for about £50-60 i think well what i brought them for.
    
    Trust me, buying the most expensive lights for your car doesn't necesarily make ur car better in anyway or higher class. They will only look good on a high rated vehicle. Also pain in the arse if you bust a few bulbs be harder to replace ..not sure on this..
    
    Go for the ones in the pic above, think they are smoked jewels or my standard DTM's
    which you can either tint the clear lense.. or open the casing up with glue gun and spray the black iner casing to your car colour which im thinking of doing. Currenty they are MOT ilegal due to no reflectors, but they do come with them. But just swap them over for mot's But as iv just done is paid for some reflective tape off ebay, and im cutting out my custom shape to go ont he lense so makes them perfectly legal.
