Looks very tidy and a good job on the cleaning dept.

What are those sidelight bulbs you have fitted ?

the sidelights are SMD LED's. they are flat panel LED's.

These ones have 5 leds, 1 front facing, and 4 all around.

You can get them with all front facing as well

the ones i have a better to use with reflectors, like the omega lights.

Very bright, for very little power, and also very white light. Matching the colour of the HID headlights a bit better.

had them on my last 3 cars.

Did you clay bar before polish ? That is a lovely deep shine.
