Get 100w bulbs, they make a lot more difference (although not strictly legal, but no one will notice)

dont bother with a full on proper xenon setup cos it will be a lot of hassle and will cost lots to purchase. i got some cool blue lights,

80/100w and they are sweet. I had to dip the light slightly so i didnt blind people, but they are awesome. The xenon ones for about 20 quid a go are shockingly bad. Stay away from them!!!
