The Hyundai Shit Box 2* had some fancy integrated round ones with a star like effect. The challenge is that they are designed to sit flush with the body rather than surface mount. There are probably a few Mini options kicking around.
* Might not have been officially called the Shit Box, possibly Matiz?

My intention wouldn't be to highlight (no pun intended) the lights, just to modernise the overall appearance (maybe think TVR? ooer). I really dislike (for instance) the use of DRL's in different shapes to 'add bragging rights' to more up-market models. In fact I dislike DRL's on principle as they just introduce more danger to the roads long-term (as ROSPA pointed out before DRLs were introduced, but their views were ignored). Maybe SB is what Matiz means in it's manufacturer's land?
