E92 CF Headlight insert anyone?

If this is a reprot, don't kill me.:

So instead of blacking out your E92 headlight, replace it with C/F. wondering how the quality of the CF and how it fit:

To me, nothing screams rice quite like getting a 10" wide rim and stretching a 245 width tire onto it.

While I would not put those on my car, I can see someone else using them.

OP, I'm throwing a dart in the dark, but I don't think no one have tried these. You should do it and post pictures and a link to where you found them for other forum members who's interested.

Good comeback, but way to throw other people under the bus .

I posted up about these some time ago when I found them during a web search.

Problem is, you still have to break open your headlamp housings and reseal to install - which I personally am not interested in doing...

agree with you, post up some image when you get the item and once it's inside the headlamp as well.

My whole headlight is blacked out with LED rings it should look nice with that CF add on. doesnt look too good with the chrome stock headlight and the clear signal.
