It's the first time I notice that the 2nd facelift headlights are free from orange junk, as opposed to the earlier US spec headlight versions, and that there's just some orange reflex stuck on to the wheel arch instead.
As an additional OEM+ mod I'd suggest also replacing the mirror indicator lights to smoked stronger sequential ones. The stock ones are a bit of a weird old parts bin thing... LED but surprisingly weak and based on lights from long before the F-Type was introduced.

I may, if the timing of the sequential matches up, especially. I'd think they'd look weird if the sweep wasn't in time, if that makes sense.
I'm not sure without looking again, but the US headlights may have had an amber reflector in them. The bit on the wheel arch illuminates on US cars, but we turned it off during programming in anticipation of shaving the bumper to match EU/UK spec, as well.

Found this online so it looks like there's a bit of amber in there after all.
It's much less than in the earlier cars though. Amber strips in the lights are usually the first red flag for cheap used F-Types over here in Europe... typically crashed or flooded US cars imported and fixed up for cheap in Eastern Europe and then sold on in Germany.

I’m generally not a fan of chrome accents, but on the BRG it really works for me for some reason. Looks great
Same. I think it's just a classic combo and works because the color feels "older." I swapped to the bright trim to kind of provide an homage to the E-Type.
Not really visible here, but the headlights are EU-market Pixel LEDs, too.
Working on about an inch of lowering and some old-school looking motorsport-inspired wheels, too.
