That's a great question...but still I think it will look odd. Think about it'll look like a black eye!

04 530i (e60) Sapphire Black
Hey there bros plus pros... I just joined this forum... pretty kool stuff you guys got going on with your rides. I recently purchased the headlight and tail light chrome trims from bavauto. Some of my pals think its cheap and some think that they look good. Any Ideas whether i should leave them on, or should i take em off? (Chrome trims that border around the lights)...
your help is appreciated. Since i just purchased the car, i'll be putting up pics soon.
oh see im not even going to read through this whole thread.. cause i can tell you right now that there gonna squash any chrome suggestions...

lol.. i cant bring myself to look so im wondering if anyone posted the inevitable "envy" pic?

alli have to say about chrome trim around headlights and tails is .. HELL NO DONT EVEN DO IT! ugh.. ick.. no.
