It looks more stock than the other ones.

No worries Ramone. Here is yet another style of rear LED cluster for the Avant.

Would really like to see them on a car before i decide they're too Chav or not.

Suppose we could go 50/50 on a set and put them on one car, then if one of us likes / dislikes buy the other one out?
Is that a silly idea?

I have just ordered the set above, if i dont like them I'll sell them on again. I think they'll work ok but we'll wait and see.

I'm definetly not a fan of the front DRL jobbies. I did like the OEM S6 DRL's that were fitted to that Naggaro Blue RS6 saloon a while back though. Couldn't find the picture of the rears on that page either.

Personally I think they are very chavvy .... my preference is to maintain a car as much as possible to its original appearance.
Whilst I have had the DRC removed & replaced by Bilstein shocks & Hotkis AR, and uprated brakes from new, this is mainly because of function.
When it comes to cosmetics, I think the original look is always better

Strange thing happened to me yesterday. I saw a blue estate car go past and I thought to myself 'Not keen on that blokes rear lexus style lights' then it suddenly clicked they were the original lights because it was an IS200! So in a way, I feel a bit sorry for IS200 drivers because what was original and innovative has become, unfortunately, chavvy-looking.
