dont use thinner.. use claybar.. they will get it off easily.. honestly i think you shouldve keep it stock looking or go little more darker...
+1 ... Don't go near the paint with thinner. Clay it and use a clear coat polishing cleaner followed up with wax.

My Ride: 04 525i, 04 Dinan M3
I'm in IT as well.
I've been wanting to darken my tail lights, I'm thinking almost black with the alpine white. How do you think that would look?

I forgot you have LCI, I'm considering LCI tails personally, the total price for it is tough for my to swallow.

BTW- your lights looks great! very nice... subtle.
