Color matched side vent on MR

gatorfast · 07-13-2012, 01:32 PM

Anyone have any pics of color matched side vents on melbourne red? Particularly an E90 would be great so I can see the contrast between the red marker and black honeycomb. Thanks!

E90 M3 Side grilles painted in MR with dark tint LED lens.

Wow thanks! Maybe im pressing my luck, but you wouldnt happen to have pics of the same thing but with the clear lens would you? Not going for the red and black theme on my car.

Not that I could find.

I just put a MR side gill on my Jerez Black coupe. I'm not a fan of it with an un-tinted lense, it doesn't look right, and the MR seems to have come out far darker than the above pictures.

I'm using a mobile but will post up my picture soon (it's also in my thread called "E92 Side Gills")

Just in my experience I didn't go with a tinted lens and am now regretting it....

Tinted Lenses imho look much better... but then again I'm a huge fan of black and my car is completely black lol

Although you may not be going for the red-black theme, and I know it is none of my bussiness, I could not resist to express my opinion on how good that side gill with tinted lens look. Think about it.

I guess I just don't like things that look overtly aftermarket, which IMO tinted lights do. Maybe if I saw it in person I would change my mind.
