Generally I'd say no. Sometimes on a dark car or silver car for the light ones, but in this case I think the standard ones look better. I don't think there are many good rear light options for that colour car. :( Sorry

in my opinion i hate lexus lights on any non lexus...

id stick to the originals or get a pair of hellas (smoked or white/clear)

the hella's work reasonably well with any colour.

I know I'm going to get flamed for this, but I like them. You should stick a set of chrome/LED indicator bulbs, thus losing the orange tint on the indicator.

The thing is that the rear end looks rather cluttered, however. Maybe debadge the Polo badge, would convince you.

Good on you for trying something different :D

Smoked hellas would be pimping tho

that is the idea, i'll get them off soon. im trying for the black and green motiff. hopefully when i source some black angel eyes and black repeaters from germany, they'll all come together.

cheers for the comments guys, it is true that i am very undecided about the look of it but i do want to shy away from the rest of the clones. i'll leave it on for the next couple of weeks, see if they grow on me.

and this is how they would look if i had designed them >>
