Lea,
The front bits were on the car when I bought it. With lights at around NZ$4000 (GBP 1800, US$2300) EACH, I wouldn't have done it myself. Rarely drive the SL at night.

I didn't upgrade the back, but here's a photo of the rear anyway. I had the chance to upgrade the lower valance (sides only) to the 2-hole look, but as I had already painted the bottom all round I decided I didn't need it.

To me the whole upgrade business for no reason other than looks is an expensive luxury - it's still a '93 - I'd rather spend it on a newer SL!
