I think some half reds or euro rear lights would look smart on that.

Looks rather tidy though. Seems to be a bit high on the back?

/\Or some full red.

Does look very tidy. Get the cutting compound out, and get the paint fully red, and then get the bumpers nice and dark, and your onto a winner :)

good base there, seen as though you have the clear clusters already you may as well spray them up. do all red, apart from the indicator bits......that looks the best imo.

and loose the side strips.

doubt the rear will drop any more, seems to be the norm for g max rear springs to sit high!, i got some 70mm springs made up in the end!
