Clear, Smoked, or Painted Relfectors on a Space Grey 335i e92? Voting Poll Inside

MikesBMW · 02-03-2011, 02:14 PM

Just bought painted reflectors but I'm thinking clear or smoked might look good as well. Not sure which ones to go with... What do you all think?

Clear.

Depends on the "theme" of the rest of your car.

If you're tinted or have dark wheels, go smoked.

If not, go clear.

I don't like painted because they don't actually reflect light then (do they?).

This is true, i decided to get the clear ones because i got the CF roundels for the wheels as well as the hood and trunk as you can see.

@wren57 trunk looks good, I would stay clear or go with the JL on the plexi. The bmw and the 3 look a little cheesy IMO.
