I keep saying Darkline by mistake. Somethings got me confused :rolleyes:

Oh well, lets forget about that :p

Fitted BMW performance blackline rear lights thisevening (oh.. and fitted something new yesterday too :p pic at end of thread ;) ). Just went at it with no idea what I was doing so thought I'd take a few pics during the process :)

BEFORE/AFTER: Left side is old style, right side is blackline. Its a bit hard to tell here though, because the main difference is with the left side part of the lights...

Heres one completely fitted: Protective film still on

I'll show you proper day pics of the slag when I can.

To be honest. The front could go down another 20mm at a push but I wouldn't want the back any lower than it is...

stance is good. M-sport setup makes a big difference. About 20mm lower than standard SE spec.

I saw some twat on some site mention me directly and saying itd look tractored without lowering springs but he was looking at non m-sport cars..

Well I'll get pics and if everyone tells me I'm wrong, I will think about it :)

Wish I could but the miswah wouldn't forgive it :( Also I think I'd cause more trouble than my presence is worth because of some of the other attendees :D

Looking good mega! The standard lights on the E90 really let the backside down big time. Your rear looks a lot more purposeful now :p

CH's perfect addition too, things are shaping up nicely :)
