tinting easy, either spray or the old skool way of stretching tights over 
calipers and drums are really easy.. go red calipers and black drums if it was me
any other ideas?

Welcome to the site

(look around, THERE WILL be cheaper ones out there)
You have to be careful with tinting your rear lights, if it obscures the reflective part on them it could be illegal. Another alternative might be to just buy some black lights like these;

As said before it means to remove the orange lense of the indicators - its also referred to as a 'fried egg'! I think though on the MG its simply a orange bulb isnt it? So you can buy some silvervision bulbs for under a tenner and they will do the same job;ward19 wrote: oh yeah btw what does detango mean?
