Rich, you NEED to get some white sidelights, they look awful in yellow!
However, I've not wired up my angel rings on mine, and I reckon they actually look rather good.
Did you ever get around the light ending abruptly? Mine is just the same, loads of light, then a dead stop.
If you look inside the projector unit, there is a section of metal inside to give the shape, I was thinking, if you could be bothered, you could take the units apart and file that silly stop away, could keep the kick up profile for MOT legality, but it could make the beam a lot better I reckon.
