Would light output be okay if i spray the white part black too?
Or what about spraying them yellow..lol i dunno i'm worried about the visibility just because the reflectors got cut off.

I would love to get sports bumpers but it cost too much,id rather save the bigger cost and wait another year or 2 and i might consider getting myself 206 GTI 138.

Never thought of it like that before, but it's a damn good description. I have 2 down the road that colour. Might just mention that description and see how long before they sell them.

The lights look crap. Get rid of the white and they will be slightly better. As already said, colour code them with chrome reflectors and they will suit the car.
