E93 Side Reflectors

All of the threads I can find on side reflector replacement refer only to E91 or E92. Does anyone on the board know if the E92 reflectors fit the E93? James at Modbargins thought they did but wasn't 100% sure and thought it might be a good idea if I "asked the board."
THANKS

Smile Cool - Clear on Barbera Red

THANKS - I wanted to go with clear on Barbera Red. I like the look of matching clear to the side running lights.

I put smoked ones on my e92. But I think clears would look just as good.

nope the ones i got (which i cant recall ATM) came with the same sticky adhesive as on the stock ones

trust me
one of the easiest/hardest LOOKING mods ever

its just a matter of moving the fender liner to get to the reflectors
then its cake from there

I got the smoked reflectors from **********s, look great on my SG (although its an e92 not e93, but it is the same mod. There is glue/tape on the reflectors already.

Make sure it is warmed up first, also be careful when you try and pry it away the first time as per the DIY from Longtran, the panel is very flexible and not very strong, I 'dug' a little too deep as I pryed it away and put a few small indentations under the reflector that you can see (albeit barely) if you look really close. That being said, I am a mod virgin and this was pretty simple!

Well worth it!
