A quick photoshop of this was done for me:



Do you think it works?

I would say definitely. Freshens the rear end up nicely.

Are clear rears still an option or standard now?

Have yet to find a color that the clears don't look good with.

Good luck trying to find clear reflectors like in the picture, though.

Much better, but I don't think it would look right with the red reflectors.

It does look better with the clear reflectors but it's a pity they have to be red by law though.

They look fantastic smile

Paint the reflectors body-coloured and use a stick on one at MOT time.

I think if you painted the reflectors like Yeti said, then would look much better smile

Nope, standard red lights go well with that nice light blue.

Show us the same picture with red lights to compare.

Remember Shmee they will go red when you brake, and the top half is red with the sidelights on.

I don't think your editing does them justice - they look even better than in your picture.

The reds are still fantastic quality, though I'm sure the standard spec on most models now is the clears......except the one-77.

Slightly off topic, but does the middle bit of the One-77's lights actually light up?

It would look ste with clears on too (imo). Especially in that horrible colour. smile

Smoked might work, but the clear ones just look a bit... Kahn.

No. Wash your mouth out! That's about the worst thing you can say about a modification to a car
