What look are you going for??
Rings or strips in the lights or inserts in the bumper...

Klarzy, tell me more about strips in the bumper.

In fact don't most cars come with "drl's"? The 5w (I think they are about 5w) side/pilot light

Oh .... I like those...

Now all I need is to find some decent LED's that don't burn out after a couple of weeks use ....

there's all sorts of different options you can go for. I've been doing ones that fit in the headlights but you can get strips that fit in the slots at the bottom of facelift rover 75 bumpers which look great and look like they're mean't to be there, like the ones in suzublu's pic

Here's some I've done recently:
