Bought them to pair them with CF splitters :) Bumper is going for respray because the bodyshop did not do a proper job and paint is peeling/bubbling. After respray I'll install the CF splitters too. Bought them from ebay for 55.00 pounds. They came with 6 self tapping screws and 3M double sided tape. I do plan to copy them this weekend :)

Great improvement. Smoked indicators has to be the first mod for every non-facelift E46 :)

Same as mine mate, I blacked out the orange part of the bulb and it looks much better.

Bit of free advertising for Teddy here (hope i get a discount for this :)) but I've did the same mod but with clear indicator bulbs to get rid of the amber.

Finishes the smoked lenses off in my opinion:

looking good paris.at first i had my doubts but now i might actually consider those corners.i was a bit afraid that they might have fitment issues cos i heard different stories of not fitting properly.
how much did they cost?

[paris]

They are a perfect fit. Cost was £27.00 total from an ebay shop. It took me a while to find the correct ones because most of the shops have the clip-on version, not the screw type.

The rubber gasket around them is thicker than OEM and it seals really good with the fender. I can't tell any difference in quality compared with the Bosch ones.

very nice Paris. As Andy's said i was thinking to get them but was not sure. Probably now i will:)
Although consider a carbon front grille;)

[paris]

Well I just came back from work and they are still on the car, so I guess they are a good fit ;) For an aftermarket product, its quality is 99.9% OEM. I will order some silver bulbs to match too.

Yeah carbon fibre grill on its way.. Probably after vacations (cash shortage). I'll be in Greece too from 26/07-03/08, hope I make it to see your beautiful M3 finished.

[peter antoniou]

Yea mate you will see it. You are always welcome with Andy's, any day you want just give me a ring before you are on the way.

very nice shame they dont make them for the facelift.

I think that must be one of your simplest ever mods Paris. Nice and subtle

Lol yeah.. Took me no more than 5 minutes for both sides. I decided to put an end to the mods though after I install the LSD,M3 mirrors,Brake kit,Alcantara sport seats,HID 3K fogs and carbon fibre centre console.

Problem is that all the "cosmetic" mods are on the front of the car, and for the rear the only thing I have is the M3 spoiler.

They look much better. Are these the DEPO ones or are all smoked crystals the same?

[paris]

These are the DEPO ones
