So thanks again Long.

Looking great buddy! I wish I could see that in person. Definitely gives a good touch to your E90. Do you mind if we use some of the images up there for our website?

I am sorry if this is a stupid question. So the amber becomes darker. But it's still amber. Is that what this mod is about?

JayReplay · 11-14-2008, 04:42 PM

Looks a lot better. I just wish the Ambergones only covered the amber area of the headlight. It seems like they are too big and cover some clear area too. =(

this mod gives it a smoked looked to your headlights. It looks nice.

yeah they are a bit bigger but they actually look very nice in person. I would recommend this mod. if you look at it in person through different angles you won't see any of the orange anymore. i kind of liked that it was a bit bigger so you won't see any of the orange part.

You should definitely get silver coated amber bulbs or led's for your front turn signals. It takes away a ton of the orange resulting in more of a euro look. Even with tinting/vinyl the amber is still there because of the bulb's reflection in its housing.

what's the part number for these bulbs?

JL330i_UT · 11-14-2008, 06:30 PM

i think you should get chrome turn signal bulbs.

ModBargains.com · 11-14-2008, 06:53 PM

Yeah, getting rid of that amber is probably going to make an even bigger difference

This is why I am not ordering them. It looks strange. I also dont want to get them in the mail and start cutting them with an exacto knife. I want them to come in right size from the beginning and not go into the clear sections of the headlight. Overall though they do look very and are great for the money. I am not trying to bash a product, I am just trying to suggest an improvment in the product.

Noted - Vitex did make version 2.0 which covered it more I think thats as far as they want to take it before it becomes to obtrusive. But if you guys really want to change it some more cuts with some modifications we can arrange for that if there is a demand on it. They are very willing to work to suggestions.

I tried looking on **********s... is there anywhere to buy these currently?
