sry bobby. didnt mean to start that... but if you want some euro tail lights, you know where to find me. lol.
but on what you originally said, i personally wouldnt go with those tail lights you have pictured in the link. it wouldnt suit the ti imo. besides its unfortunate that they dont make those types of tail lights for our cars. :-( __________________

Bobbak, you def. shouldn't get those and they wouldn't fit either. You need 318ti specific tail lights like everyone else just stated. What you should get are those nice euro clear type tail lights.. Well, what do you know?! There's a group buy that just started for one, you should jump in on the action!! | | | | | 03-01-2008, 03:10 PM | #19 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Ferndale, MD Posts: 462 |
Just to let you guys know, I am working a connection to get LED tails for the ti. The chinese guys makes the LED tails for my friends company, but so far he only has them for Mazda 3's and 6's. I could get a prototype within a month, but I am focusing on getting rims now. __________________ No trunk for the Junk  | | | | | 03-01-2008, 06:57 PM | #20 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2007 Location: LA, Bellflower, CA Posts: 3,613 |

Heya lads, i just saw this tread.. True i work at Schmiedmann  The website has a language selector (pick a flag) But shipping to the US is insanely expensive from us, so i dont think its worth it in the long run. But.. we we have an American affiliate called Abrahams Motorsports, and they can cover the orders from the States __________________

Speaking of Schmiedmann Denmark, there was a program on the German satellite channel we get (ProSiebenSat1Welt) Sunday evening about 3 guys competing for a mechanic job in Denmark. I was eating dinner when it started and only saw the last half. When I saw the name "Schmiedmann" I thought "I know someone who works there..." I watched the 3 guys change a 6-cylinder E36 air filter blindfolded, and then pick items from the warehouse for an order. The warehouse looked pretty impressive. A fellow named Dirk got the job and the manager's name was Martin Andresen. I suppose you know them...

Yup Thats my store !  Dirk is a good lad hes been with us now for about 2 months and we like him, hes quite good even though he´s young Yep, thats also my boss, Martin. A good fellow The TV crew never filmed the office guys that much, it kind of just centralised on the mechanic / warehouse side of things. Sales wasnt really that important apparently .... bastads The company name is pronouced "sch meeeed man" And dont say viking from denmark, they wont have a clue which one  Just say Andrew __________________
