"Red"lines - what do you think?

I had blacklines but sold them. For some reason I think they just don't go that well with TiAg. So I'm trying something new, Redlines.

These are painted, not overlays.

Let me know what you think.

Not bad, black lines are kinda wack. I prefer the stockers.

blacklines blow it away on TiAg and AW the best. this is good though, much nicer than stock.

Those look really good.

I didn't go with blacklines for the same reason (Does not work well with the silver color). Good job

Work well on your TiAG, but on SG, JB or AW, the blacklines still rule!

Looks closer to the LCI (a good thing) and better than both blacklines and stock IMO. I think it would look great on a black E90 as well.

I like it but you could also consider the smoked blacklines (Depo)

Yes, not very difficult.

I had blacklines and sold them. For some reason I kept looking at them and just didn't think it flowed as well on a TiAg car like it does on other color cars. I also don't think Carbon Fiber looks that great on TiAg.

I found TiAg to be a tough color to match stuff to. Wish they had SG when I bought it.
