Guys,
I think the issue is _different_ from stock, primarily to change
the look. It doesn't necessarily look any better or worse, but the
change is worth the effort. Around work, I see STSs all day long with
red taillights, but when I see one of the few Euro-spec STSs running
around with their amber coloured insets, the car stands out.
I dare say that a V8 with 5000 or 200 lights would likely stand
out and most would agree that it looks good. As you point out, the
colour of the car may influence that a little bit.
