Hello guys, here's a pic of my solaris bulbs (super white) and amber smoked side markers from Bimmian.com. I had to choose between super white and ultra bright amber. I compared the two and liked the super white. I installed this today, it should take about 15 mins max to install both turn signals and side markers. But, the right side(passenger side) turn signal housing got stuck<---PITA, it wont come out. It turns but wont come out. I had to take the headlights off, and use a pliers to take it off.

So much better! Great choice on color and bulbs, they really clean up the front end.

Solaris bulbs/invisbulbs make a hug difference IMO. Nice. I thought I was going to have to remove the headlight unit to get mine in. Luckily I figured out a way not to and was pretty easy....

Congrats

That looks nice.

You should stop with the mods, start parting it out, swap cars and mod the M.

LOL, there's something about this car that I can't just leave behind.
