Smoked tails in...

[BFEINZIMER]

So I just got my smoked tails (depo) from Mel over at Aberhams...

Despite my throughts about depo, the tails seem solid...and

THE CAR LOOKS about 1000 times better :)

the dark turns go real well with the deep green of the car :)

[Dragunov]

Nice, waiting for the pics. So you gave her a gift for reaching 150k?

[BFEINZIMER]

[BFEINZIMER]

See I was condsidering those...but I like the red and white, and the smoked white looks good on my green...but granted those r smoked

[Dragunov]

Are those Hellas? If so i tought those were darker, as in totally dark.

Yes hellas, they're not pitch black. But they look amazing on silver e34's ;)

lets see a pic of urs mac

I want to see those smoked Hellas on Alpine.

[LunatiC]

BFEINZIMER, what kind of green is your E34? I would like to see smoked white. I have an oxford green and although I think that having smoked Hellas like CharlesAFerg on my oxford green would look a little silly (only looks good for silver/grey and black E34s IMO) smoked whites would be an interesting idea. At the moment I have just euroclears and I think it looks good, esp. with that red licence plate reflector that everyone else on here thinks looks like **** ;)

We can throw mine on yours when you come up for the light swap, but I think an alpine needs DARK smoked tails (I'll smoke your OEM's ;)), these are kind of a deep grey which is why I think it fits perfectly with my 5. (EDIT: in these pics they look pretty dark, in sunlight they don't)

Here's a pic of mine...

That's one clean e34. Wow. The staggered rondells?, the drop, the tint.

Very nice looking car.

What size rims and what suspension are you running?

[Macv]

17x8.5 and 17x10 with sachs/eibach

Here's a more recent shot with my newly painted lowers :D :D

Awesome. Find yourself a set of m-tech side skirts and the car is simply perfect.

...oh yeah, and replace that rear exhaust hanger, the tips are slightly crooked. :)

[Macv]

Yeah, I replaced my hanger once, then when I was done I realized there was another. :D

Mmm yeah, mtech. I don't have the time or money at the moment. More important things.

[Dragunov]

Wow Mac, what color is that? It looks totally awesome! Is it a factory color or aftermarket? I can't decide between alpine or black, and this one looks like a perfect alternative.

It looks like lachsilber metallic.
Same as me.

After, with me being a comical douche with ****ed up hair and dirty car getting out of the high desert of Bend, OR this summer (see tires) ...and I detailed the car before I left too.

OH! Also, my hellas came with a filler that has the same diamond-cut light look as the lights, but I just left my m5 filler on because it's a pain in the ass to take off. I think it would look better with the matching filler.
MacV, if I put on my matching filler, would you want to buy my M5 filler off me for cheap?

I want to live in Cali. You guys have desert climates actually near civilization. So nice. I'm sick of this dragging-on Oregon rain.

[LunatiC]

Nice pout.

[Paul in NZ]

IMHO i think the red/white look better on black cars....the smoke is getting too black,

[Macv]

My car is granitesilber 237... a little darker than Charles's. Which btw looks pretty good. I believe its screaming for a tint and painted lowers though :) However... I find the plate fillers only look good with the lowers black. So keep the two tone, it works for your 5.

I had the black hella plate filler and got rid of it, so I'd have to pass on the m5 filler. I'm sure somebody would nab it.

[Dragunov]

Mind if i build the exact same car as yours, Mac? Well mine will probably have throwing stars but those polished style 5s look awesome too, so i might get a set of that instead :P

[Macv]

Only if you do it to the teeth. There's many suprises on the inside you'll have to match as well ;)

Were you refering to my wheels as style 5s? http://images.bimmerforums.com/smilies/nono.gif Rondell 58s. :D

I agree with Paul! :D

Is it as good on the inside as the outside? And about the wheels... whoopsie

[BFEINZIMER]

I'd throw up a pic of the car but its dirty as fu*k and the Santa Ana winds are preventing me from washing it...it would just f up the paint :(

DIRTY 5
