My mate has just bought a 1997 black Corsa Sport for £300 and he has £120 to spend on it!

He already has bought second hand fixed back sparcos for £80 so has £40 left

So he asked me to ask you lads what you think of these lights on a black

Depends what colour car tbf, they look ok on some cars. If its black then darker ones (MHW, Irmscher) that look as if they are smoked will look better.

If your mate's on a budget I wouldn't have blown over half of it on seats. I'd start with a bloody good polish, remove some badges and the lower it. Next move would be to buy some nice wheels. Lights etc just look tatty and total shit IMO.
