greenthree,
how wide are your rear tires. im thinking of getting a 19x10s for mine and am afraid this might look too wide. yours look cool. are they 10 wide?

Joeb427 · 07-22-2009, 09:18 AM

Are these blacklines available in a unsmoked white area version?

Jlevi offers clear tailights with LEDs: http://www.jlevistreetwerks.com/BMW-...0l82fdgpu0n6q7

I think there's another vendor that offers "clearlines." Do a search and I'm sure you'll find it.

Thanks Fresh.

I think I like the non smoked better on alpine white.
The LEDs and Xenon White LED Backup Bulbs would be a nice touches too.

I plan on going with OEM blacklines on my SB e90. The Depo brand are way too dark and clearlines are too light. All personal preference.

Be careful if you go with LED. I've read that they throw error codes depending on your bimmer's build date.

Thanks for the info.
I have to see the OEMs in person and if I go with them, I'll stay with bulbs even though I have a after 3/07 build..

DEPO are non-LED, 110% error free, but yea, led taillights do throw errors....

i put blacklines on but then i realized that everyone else had them too. i switched back to my stock tail lights and now i'm 2 levels deep of modding with a bone stock look. beat that!

BoogeyMan'sBMW · 08-17-2009, 12:09 PM

whats the difference between OEM blacklines and depo blacklines?

E92-Lighting · 08-17-2009, 12:11 PM

DEPOS are slightly darker

Flakpheiser · 09-05-2009, 06:54 PM

I think it would be worth adding to the initial post that it is normal to see white light from above the red lens when you look down at it from an angle.
