Cool mother, like I said personal preference. I didn't mean the front bumper I meant just the front lights. The spoiler is h real carbon fibre Hamman style from Japan I think of all the places.

[quote=""Mother""]Need some chrome indicator bulbs that use the weird bmw fitting?[/quote]

Leave them they will match the badges ;) :poke:
Joking aside car looks great but the badges are awful....just my opinion of course ;) and thats what makes modding so individual :thumbsup:

You mean the colour of the badges surely.....chrome is soooo safe and boring imo....tbh i have done the chrome thing and wanted to do something different...

I know putting a Nissan on here will indeed arouse some negative feelings, but i was deluded and was in a dark place at the time of choosen my ride so please be gentle :oops: ......you like the Mitsubishi shogun sport roof spoiler i modded onto it? :D

Cheers mother but I wanted some pics of the rear lights, I'm keeping the standard look on the front. Just my rears are a tad dull like yours was.

Hello Mother !
did you have any issues with the light bulb failure warning system after fitting the led lights ?
Cheers

If i use my own leds instead of normal 501 bulbs the indicators come on as a safety precaution and i get check parking lights error on the dash (this maybe fixed with the more expensive LED with the resistor)... Check this thread out on BMW X forum there's a guide to fitting and also the problems i have had just fitting mine. :D

Think my attempt starts on page 3. :D
