Both cars look amazing! I see you have both taken out the orange side indicator bit from the main headlight. Is this a simple task and is there a thread or guide somewhere showing how? It really helps update the look.

Still have the orange bulbs inside matey. As far as i know, you can only get the silver indicator bulbs (blade type) from the USA :headbang: unless anyone knows if there's a UK supplier.
