Clear or smoked corners? Tinted tail lights? Tinted windows always make any car look nice. Brighter fog light bulbs. It's late, that's all that comes to mind right now.

I performed a query that yielded on 21 results including this thread. ZumnRs post appears to be the most comprehensive. Can anyone please repost/modify ZumnRs list with best of the best mfr respectively.
