Does nobody like smoked rear lights anymore? I think they look good with other black/grey bodywork (bumpers/tinted windows...)

The split ones look a lot better than the all clear ones.

they all look good on the rite coloured nova problem is most of them are not e marked so you have to have reflectors on the back to. what a let down to a nice pair of lights a friend of mine fitted a set of clear lights to his nova that were not e marked and he got hit on the back end his insurance was void due to the rear lights he got 6 points and had to pay for both cars to be fixed all for a set of 80ish pound lights

ive got a set in my nova and there not e marked but to be honest i only use the lights at shows but to drive on the road you just need to put reflectors on the back also you should have a seperate rear fog aswell if there not e marked if any of you are unsure go on the abc design website they sell loads of clear lights for cars also look in the tech tips on there and you will see what i mean about e marked lights just amagine some one smashing up your nova thats cost you 1000s to do up just the way you want it and you insurance being void dont take the risk
