MiKc · 08-21-2011, 07:13 PM

nice !

blue dragon · 08-21-2011, 07:51 PM

If you don't mind me asking, which dealership has the burnt out car? I'd like to get some parts from the interior if they are parting it out. PM me the details please

Car looks great with the LCI parts

Great job, love the LCI tails.

You will also need the trunk to make the conversion.

The guy never disclosed the dealership to me at the time. If you go to Maxbimmer.com and go to their sponsors, PM Eurostyle and he should be able to help you you.

I'm not sure what parts he has left from the car so you should ask him and find out.

Looks good!

nuckingfuts · 02-05-2012, 04:24 PM

looks amazing! This is definitely something I need to do as well.

very nice, top job

So if you get the trunk and tails, this should be a bold-on? Other than coding issues?

It cost you $1200? Even after not buying brand new parts?

Have you thought about doing a LCI rear bumper too? I think the LCI rear bumper gives a wider stance to the rear due to creases going all the way across...

i like the pre lci better, the compressed design lins kinda ruins the rear proportions and a bit awkward running though the exhaust

DimitrisM3 · 04-08-2012, 05:27 PM

you install the lights with out coding and they work???
you change and the cambles???

seannana · 04-09-2012, 03:45 AM

Looks like a clean conversion! LCI tails set it off.. enjoy!

FSociety · 04-19-2012, 11:49 AM

This would be cool, I need to fix the trunk on my e90 07 and prob need to replace it do I need to replace the outer or just the lights that come with the trunk ?

carlosalbertogui · 04-25-2012, 04:15 AM

Actually yes, but I emailed someone at bmw and they said "You do not need the new trunk to fit these tail lights. They will fit on Non-LCI cars. The only thing that will not work is the old wiring harness that’s a plug and play harness."

Hartge · 04-25-2012, 03:16 PM

top job, i want this conversion

FSociety · 04-30-2012, 08:35 AM

Do you require the 2009+ lock cylinder or no?

Looks like he sold his pre-lci and got the latest model now

6MTF80 · 02-21-2013, 12:23 PM

Is there any hardware to hold the tail lights from unplugging? I did the conversion also but didn't get the carpet and the inner lights don't seem to stay in all the time. Or is it just the carpet that holds them in?

Amini77 · 02-22-2013, 02:46 AM

Looks good! Just about to finish mine next week as soon as I get the trunk! So you needed all the other little things like the wiring harness, lock cylinder, and carpet? And the roundel isn't transferable?
