You can either buy some tint spray paint or use lamin-x for smoking the rear tail lights. Most people choose the european red clear from BMW like the pic in my avatar.

it is a public forum afterall... i can say basically whatever to an extent... and i don't believe i crossed any boundaries.

my opinion is that those tail lights are ugly... it wasn't off topic or anything, was it?

am I not entitled to say what I like on a public discussion forum?

and for the record, you crap up your own threads...with crap.

Rwd king, he didn't ask for opinions on them. He asked where to get them.

Your response is akin to going to a clothing store, asking for the shoe department, and having the clerk tell you that you're ugly instead of telling you where the shoes were...

...then being ignorant enough to defend his/her position.

how much do the tails run? i think the last two look the best of the 3. ...and ive been trying to find tail lights for the cheapest possible for the longest. hey do they line up like the oem ones? cuz someone has a set of clear tail lights and the white/clear part was wider than normal.

In general I think that you can state your opinion about those taillights. But you could have said it better, especially when it is about someone's 318ti. lol you should know that they are our pride and joy.

Anyways, on topic, you can get that stuff on ebay but I am not too sure of the quality of them...they are pretty cheap so I'm not sure.

Peace guys. And I mean it

Chuck

I just totally busted out laughing after reading that...
I think Id die with laughter if that actually happened! Not even kidding!


I hate on people who bastardize their cars in hopes they develop some taste, Im sorry, I can't help it... look at Hugo, it worked on him! Now his car is hawt.... I do it to my friends here at home too... Yes, Im a jerk, Im well aware...

Mallard,

Cool website!

Who makes the B36FLLCOM tail lights?
I may want to look for a set when I'm in Germany at the end of the month.
