Smoked Sidemarker

Joaco135 · 11-25-2011, 11:06 AM

I will like to get a set of smoked sidemarker lenses but all I find are the LED ones and just don't like them. I just want the lenses, anyone know if they are even made for the 1series? Did the search button and all I find is the LED ones. Thanks.

Check the commercial thread vendors have them FS there.

Check Stealthauto.com. I bought smoked sidemarkers and blackline tails for my 3 series in the past, but I dont know if they have these available for the 1 series.

Thanks for the info but again they are the LED type which I realy don't want because they look very cheap. I was looking for a smoked version of the original (bulb) type but looks like no one makes them, guess will try the paint (VHT) route or leave them as they are right now.

Quick smoke film spray will do the trick and its hardly noticeable if you mess up since they are such a small piece.

Yeah, will go that route, thanks.

Any updates? Did you go spray?

ChuckD05 · 12-03-2011, 02:52 AM

I bought my set of smoke side markers from DDM Tunning.com but I checked recently and they didn't offer them anymore. I paid $29.00 plus shipping at the time I believe.

I will probably wouldn't go the spray route; they turn to dull black after a while. Probably will do the wrap but it will be later next year, have few things to do first.

Well ordered this and install them, much better and the quality is good. Just need to order some InvisiLite Silver Bulbs and will be done. Comments?

ken1137 · 12-13-2011, 01:05 AM

Looks good...haven't had the chance to order them yet. Just check your State code regarding amber lights (side markers & reflectors) b4 you change the bulb. Congrats.

Joaco135 · 12-13-2011, 02:07 PM

Thanks, and as long as they lights are amber when they illuminate you are ok.
