Hi,
Just become the proud owner of a 2010 2.5 Z4 in black.
It has the ugly side indicators fitted, wondering if any of you guys know where I can get hold a set of facelift ones already painted.
Thanks
Jon

Hello these guys do them in gloss black..

There is a plastic tang on the trailing tail that needs to be snapped off to make then fit pre LCI Z4...

Took me about 30 mins to ping the old ones out and put the new ones in....gloss black against Atacama Yellow looks cool, IMHO... 8) :lol: 8)

I used a spray tint that you would use to tint taillights and stuff like that and then lacquered over the top.
I am not great at spraying but these came out alright.

Not the best pics but gives you an idea. It gets rid of the ugly white plastic indicators that stick out like a sore thumb on a black car.
