It was cheap, why would we try to pose with factory looking lights?

I would have left the lights stock, but other than that it doesn't look bad. Good luck with it.

tinted head/tails on a cheapish car looks horrible most of the time IMO, wet sand the headlights and bring the tails back to stock. (p.s. I have done the all black thing on a car, heads and tails, so I am not hating on the blacked out look, it just has to be done right)

Glad you're liking the car, Bri.

If she wants the lights stripped, I'll be more than happy to do so... but as much as she talked about having a blacked out car, I doubt she'll want it reversed. lol. I agree on blacking out a cheap car (like my civic) is tacky, but in her case the BMW pulls it off IMO, even though it was cheap.

thanksss :)

as long as you like how your car looks, why change it? your driving it because you appreciate it. Who cares if somebody thinks its cheap looking or ugly. IMO I like your car, I think it looks nice. I use to have a 318i and I loved it.

Hate to say it, Evan, but I agree with this guy. That's a good looking BMW but everything looks so cheaply done, dude. Later, QD.

Care to elaborate?

I agree that the finish of the wheels needs to be re-done, and the headlights look cheap because they're flat looking, but otherwise I don't see it. You know I will always listen to what someone has to say, if they say it in respectful way like you did.

I've learned to be respectful in my dislikes to not cause unnecessary BS.

Just the fact that the wheels were painted at all, to me, makes me feel this way. The headlights as well. They both look like spray paint. On a Civic, it's not as bad because they're a cheap car anyway. But I'd expect more out of a Bimmer. Especially a newer one like this one. Later, QD.

So, we're pretty much on the same page. The wheels were definitely cheap and quickly done (Not by me, though), but lets face it, they look better than spray painted black bottlecaps! I do plan on re-doing the headlights, like I said, so they will look like the tail-lights.

I miss her :(

2 years bri.... 2 years.

Wow old!

Looks good, I think the headlights and a little to dark for my taste but each is own
