    I don't like the tow hook covers painted, it needs a little contrast down there. I have painted sideskirts, just have to put them on.

    Default looks great.

    Never did like the black lower panels. IMO, it made the car look taller in light colors.

    That is one reason I purchased a 95. Got all, or most, of the refinements since introduction.
    Thanks,

    Nice looking car Brodee. The euro trim really cleans things up. If you have the city lights,where are you getting the power now?

I still have some adjusting to do on the front, tell me what you think.





    It looks great!

    I can pull power from the corner light, or the side marker, the wires are still in there.

    I'll keep it narrow, I didn't used to like the narrow grille, but I think it looks good on this car. I may change the touring over later though.

    I just took out the bulbs andtucked the wires back up in the bumper. I think I"m going to order some trim for my e30 too, it needs new ones and might as well go with the euro. Unfortunately it's more expensive on that car.

    I always wondered if that would trigger a check control message. Glad to know it won't. Did you get the trim from BMA?

    No check control message from the side markers. I got it on the bimmerforums group buy. $54/all four pieces.
