    They looks good on light color cars too. because they are actually dark gray, not totally black, they will look darker than they really are on a lighter car. Check out my phto album at YAHOO http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/jjw168/album?.dir=f568

    Thanks
    Which Tail section do you referto? The fill piece between the tail lights? I got it from the dealer, but I think you can get it from BMA also.

    Yes, I've been told its the "M5 License plate frame"
    How much did you pay for it at the dealer?
    How much do you estimate it will cost at BMA?
    Thanks!

    Here are a set of home made smoked tails. I tinted the amber corners with spray on window tint and some masking tape. For about $20 it is tough to beat.

    Not really remember, it's been over 10 years, but I think around $60 or $70. BMA might be cheaper, but don't think it will be that much. Maybe give them a call to see.

    I must say gentlemen IMHO the clear corners are much better looking
