2011.5 e90 m3 front turn signal bulbs...stealth replacement?
are the front turn signal bulbs for the e90 m3 the same as the e92/93 (PY24W)
if so, has anyone gone with the OEM bulb swap suggested in this post: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showpos...7&postcount=11 (PN: 63217161306) to get rid of the "egg yolk" look looking for a stealth bulb replacement (yes I have searched, all threads ended up to be dead ends or non specific to the 2011.5 e90)

Aesthetically, the headlights for e9x M3 have not changed since SOP - only minor electronics.

Correct - bulbs are no different in M3 applications. Non-Ms received a LCI update just recently.

Just went and looked at my car....Why would BMW not install these stealth bulbs in our car's from factory???...... I am going to order a set now.
They are pretty pricey for $23.00 a pop though

why not use high temp silver spray paint
I did this to my bulbs the first month I got my car (march 2008) ..the bulbs still light up and when they're off you don't see any orange.
