Neither :-)

I like the red/clear rear light and with clear indicators all round the car ?

Would look great on your lovely black Sportline IMO .

looking good mate

Rear lights in personal preference, i used to have m3 style ones like Massbad's on my clipper an loved them, but have stayed standard on the sportline this time, if they are genuine all reds and not sprayed ones they are hard to get hold of , why dont you run the all reds for a bit, see how you feel then you can always go back to standard or try the m3 style ones

Will also be giving the gaitor guy and order, that looks great, steering wheel looks great as well, i would really like to get one like that eventually :-)

I do like the m3 style ones but the non crystal type as they look a bit too modern for my liking, saying that they are nice.

The red ones have been proefssionally tinted, I did think about some smoked ones but couldn't find the right tint.

The gaitor is good quality, a pain to fit though, took ages to attach it to the plastic, but the eBay seller is very very helpful.

That's the correct one Rich, I'm considering it as well, but I might wait until I get the steering wheel done and see if they will do the gaiter at the same time ?

Yep that's the gaitor.

The rear lights have been done professionally on genuine lights, obviously the reverse and indicator lights light up red but the finish is awesome and flawless.

I'll try them for a while and see how it goes, like you said it personal preference.
