How should reflector fitment be like?

kevinz · 07-08-2009, 09:06 PM

I ordered a set of painted reflectors from Bimmian and when I popped it in I could see that it's a little uneven with some gaps.

Should it fit 100% all around like the orange stock reflectors?

Oops wrong section, please move to General boards.

IND is awesome. Paint work is perfect, prompt shipping, excellent service.

And, they're just cool guys to deal with.

They matched my Individual paint to perfection!

PM Jesal@Project 808. They're selling them for $70 shipped, and they're OEM so the fitment will be just like your stock reflectors. Not to mention Jesal is the man

What were you thinking buying product from Bimmian? Must be new the forum. Should have contacted Wheels STO. That's where I got mine and they fit perfect!

IND = OEM, not OEM quality.

IND buys OEM reflectors and shaves down, prime then paint.

IND-Distribution · 07-11-2009, 03:27 PM

Thanks for the good word guys!!

We just got another batch of reflectors in and they are getting painted as I type this. We usually have all colors in stock and ready to ship and if we don't, it only takes a day or two to get a set painted up.

+100 for IND...perfect fitment and paint match.

Yes WheelSTO uses OEM as well. At this point it really comes down to price and shipping. Both vendors provide excellent product. Hopefully you learned a lesson about bimmian products. I won't say anymore.

Poppin Fresh · 07-12-2009, 09:24 PM

Yep , you should've avoided Bimmian like a soiled diaper! IND for the win! I got mine from Ape Performance. Great people to do business with.

Dartanium · 07-12-2009, 11:22 PM

got my through **********s.com and the reflectors were drop shipped from IND, awesome service and quality

09E92M34ME · 07-20-2009, 06:39 PM

no less than perfect

alpine335i · 07-23-2009, 05:15 PM

IND Excellent products backed by excellent Service. I had a slight problem with my AW reflectors matching/fading and Nate took care of it the day i sent him a PM.

gadget · 07-23-2009, 05:41 PM

Ron@Modbargains · 07-23-2009, 07:38 PM

Yes ours are the IND ones now - OEM Reflectors, sanded down and then painted with OEM paint.

We listened to you guys and how you didn't like the Bimmian product and immediately dropped it for the OEM product.
