Pulled up outside HIDs direct and just as I did I got a bulb error light! Rear number plate bulb had gone. Got two new sidelight bulbs and put them in my number plate lights so all sorted.
Also got a set of 6000K D1S bulbs.

I knew someone would pick up on that haha. I've scotchlocked sidelight bulbs inside my bumper so that the LED number plate bulbs didn't error. One of the scotchlocked bulbs went out so I got an error :)

Not 100% bang on but got spare mirror covers coming to take my time with.

However. The grill surround. I now think that would look good in the FR red.

What you think?
