No question is silly buddy if you dont ask you dont no. The short answer is alot of cars have these types of lights to give a sportier look on the high spec models all they are is the parts of the inserts are black instead of the chrome. How i did mine was basically i heated the seal using a hair dryer. As the plastics heat up gently separate the lense from the rest of the light. Once split apart sand the parts that arent needed for the light beam lightly then spray gloss or matt black leave to dry then reassemble to reseal the outer parts together i used tigerseal. Hope this helps you buddy
 
So as im sooo itching to show you all this will be the new colour for the wheels not sure if you can see from the pic before any one says its two different colours its called chamilian vinyl and it goes from blue to purple so whats the opinion of everyone better this time round :lol: and it will have clear coat to give it a polished effect

Considered it mate but decided on standard springs and yes most would say drop it but theres soooo many speed humps my end it aint worth doing

My street is full of speed bumps. At first its a little tricky but when your used to it they're ok. The handling improvement of just lowered springs is massive. For me the pro's outway the con's
 
my area is full of speed humps, i'm lowered 40mm on eibech springs and top spec standard shocks and the only thing I catch is my mud flaps, these stilo's are actually decent at taking speed bumps when lowered.
 
Hmm tbh its sooo tempting :lol: think it will be on my future plans list i think
 
So ordered sone wind deflectors and they arrived late yesterday so got them straight on and heres a few pics
