Nothing special back lights are the same shape. Better for us their isnt much change, that way our cars don't look old, plus when you mod the our car's they look different anyways.

Where does the U.S.-spec front license plate go?

Kevin Harney · 01-16-2010, 11:38 PM

I hope that the paddles can be retrofit to mine. I can not reach the paddles on mine to be able to shift down only upshift so two pull paddles would solve that problem.

I'm just curious, but how do you guys operate the paddles in your cars? I understand that they're not pull/pull, but that being the case, what are they?

michaeldorian · 01-17-2010, 12:42 AM

Anyone with press shots from BMW of the pre-LCI coupe? Side by side photos would really help judge. Currently I'm not sure how I feel about the redesign. If you go back and look at the current coupe, the lights do look to small. Hmm...

GreenPlease · 01-17-2010, 12:52 AM

Assuming the tails and paddles can be retrofitted, I say we get a group buy going for both of those parts.

If anything this new E92 front end makes the E82 front look really aggressive.

Steven L · 01-17-2010, 01:08 AM

I like the new paddle shift

ultimate · 01-17-2010, 01:11 AM

i'm glad i got pre-lci e92.
all i want are those damn tails.

it's definitely not as drastic as the e90lci

M3-HAHA · 01-17-2010, 01:30 AM

Anyone know if this will be the new facelift for the 2011 e92 M3 too??

KWY91 · 01-17-2010, 01:50 AM

okay time to get those new tail lights retrofitted onto my ride!

crazytaiwanese · 01-17-2010, 01:52 AM

from what i understand is that the Tail lights are the same shape and size, its just all red which i dont realli like but i love the LED

. i guess i have to go with the OSS design LED angel since the headlights are a different size, hoping the m3 keeps the same headlight shape but add the LED halo then ill go for that instead

.

yeah we should start a group buy on the taillights, i might get one have to check it out at a local stealership first.

Kit523 · 01-17-2010, 02:29 AM

I like the pre-lci coupe way more
but i like the LED tail and the paddles
thats about it
and the engine of coz haha

sheFs · 01-17-2010, 03:14 AM

definitely is interesting and i'm sure it would look better in the flesh and of course, repeated viewings, it was the same thing when we had the e90 LCI.

I'm just curious about an aero lip for the LCI, it was great pre-lci and looked better than the M-sport front IMO. Would something be considered along the same lines now or are we stuck with M-Sport until the F3x?

I'm kinda glad i waited and think i'll put in the order for this one.

Zunkung · 01-17-2010, 03:37 AM

Looks clean. The only thing that I dislike abut this new LCI is the headlight + overall front end. It is somehow doesn't look,,,,,,,,"Awesome" like the Original E92(Pre-LCI) one, and it is actually kindda weird.

However, I do think that it looks a little bit better w/ the M-sport Pack thou.

Others, New Taillight + New Paddle shifters + New regular Front Bumper looks pretty good.

I have a 2010 convertible and it has the big mirrors...

Halpin13 · 01-17-2010, 05:02 AM

aint feeling the new front bumper

Malbolge · 01-17-2010, 05:09 AM

somehow it looks much nicer than pre-LCI coupes and E93 is much much better because of that front. I dont know... looks like facelifts for Bmw 3er are success.

kred · 01-17-2010, 05:26 AM

anyone know if those new angel eyes can be a direct swap into the pre-lci e92's?
