That pic is about 3 years old. It wasn't even a backbox, just a chrome exhaust tip

Not really keen on SA lights. Wish they did some nice German ones for the 5 door.

Ah fair enough. yeah that would be nice. How about lightly tint the red lights then?

If lexus lights wern't so bloody "chavvy" then I'd recommend them as they are so tough. Rolled my car (complete write off) and the lights were the only things that wern't damaged. Yes the boot glass smashed etc

The euro ones?

Had them on a while ago but put them back to standard. Changed them back the other day but I'm not sure on them any more either. Will be putting standard ones back on.

The standard ones in the second pic were some eBay special 'pressed plates'. The quality of them was horrendous.

It's a crap photo but the standards do look better. Previous owner seems to have given them a good polish.
