Rice or Nice?

I need your help making a decision. I want to shade the back lights of my S2, I did it to the last one (like Number 3 in the pic) and it looked great. This one is a different colour to that one though, and I'm just not sure what to do, so I thought I'd put it to you guys...

Just tell me if you think I should leave it alone and seek therapy for my ricey tendancies, or alternatively which one of 2,3 or 4 looks best. I expect you to be brutal and honest with your opinions as always

I will post some decent pictures of my new ride, as soon as the weather over here improves!!!

Cheers!

I really like the red on red car in #2.

I don't think it is rice at all. It stays classy and smooth.


BTW- I really wanted to vote #1 just because it was so funny!

Not sure about Europe but in the US it's illigal to have reverse lights that aren't white. Go figure.

I'd say keep it stock as well, it's best how it came from the factory. To each his own though.

#1 stock or #2.
Strange to see my car with a one piece rubber bumper, a 944S2 badge, no rear corner lights, and no 3rd brake light.
