no. the inner lights are a different size. Requires a new trunk lid.

My trunk lid and tail lights with harness is on the way. I need some assistance with the coding since I want to get it done by myself. Can you assist?

.fLip. · 12-23-2012, 08:39 PM

man i cant wait till the holidays are over so i can start spending money on my car again. im SO ready for my lci conversion

freon480 · 02-05-2013, 04:51 PM

got a little antsy and decided to paint and put on my aftermarket lci hood and see how it looks/fits with the pre lci bumper while i finish up my lci msport front bumper. fitment was excellent.

and here is a close up of the grille area as people seem to wonder what an lci hood w prelci bumper looks like up close. ill have the m bumper on in a day or so....

heres a pic of my donor bumper ill be closing the license plate holes and deleting the side reflectors as well.

freon480 · 02-06-2013, 10:05 AM

painted the grilles black sapphire metallic last night. sorry for large pic. photobucket is being a dick today.

freon480 · 02-13-2013, 04:17 PM

so here is a pic of the fog lights that are going in my m bumper.

i had a set of some audi headlights laying around that i decided to take the projectors and retrofit into the fogs.

fog light disassembled

projector removed

freon480 · 02-13-2013, 04:19 PM

my HID kit for the fogs came in today from the retrofit source. i am going to be using the morimoto D2S 4300k Kit.

Amini77 · 02-13-2013, 04:25 PM

Wow..that looks great! Cool thread thanks for sharing..I'm also doing a LCI conversion in the rear..all I need are the inner tail lights and I'm finished! All the dismantling places I call up for inners will only sell a whole set..which I don't need. So if anyone can help me out to get a set of inners it would be much appreciated!

Would you mind to pm me where did you get the lci hood?
For an aftermarket one, the fitment is great!

bimmer_xi · 02-14-2013, 12:21 PM

Wow great job! I've been looking for lci halogens trying to get rid of the orange amber, where did you purchase it?
