Standard pre-facelift are my fav.

BTW are they the same size as facelift ones? Will either cluster bolt onto both pre and facelift models?

I kinda like the E36 M3 style lights with red at the bottom and clear at the top, but the best overall lights would have to be all red as they work well on both standard cars and modded ones
