Looks good! I've done clear side markers on every car that I've owned, but I'm not in any rush to do it to the 6. How difficult was it? Just had to unscrew and fold back the wheel liner?

Yep, 3 screws each side. Turn the wheel for better access. Taking the old adhesive off was the most time consuming

Surprise you haven't wrapped the fender chrome or handles to match the grill and the rest of the car. Painted front reflectors would look sick too!

Love the 343 wheels and how flush you got them. Are they M5 specs? Spacers? Are you dropped at all?

I've been thinking to code in fogs with day time running angels too.

How is the brightness compared to the 2 in real life? I'm assuming the fogs are a tad brighter?

Looks great! Love the chrome tips vs black ones. Just the right amount of contrasts.

Where did you get the 4" tips? Any rubbers on springs (assuming no spacers)?

I didn't know you could code the fogs to come on with the DRLs? I use the BimmerCodeApp. Has anyone done it on that before? I looked at the website and didn't see that function.

No spacers. M5 spec 343 with 255/35/20 295/30/20 rear. Yeah I plan to black out side vents and handles after winter.

But car is actually blue carbon blue so not really murdered out

Thanks!

The brightness actually appears about the same, partly cause the fogs sit so much lower they don't appear as bright. I also have my angels coded to maintain maximum output even with the headlights on as opposed to factory setting which dims them by 50% with the headlights on.

Thanks Duff. I just got the tips from the local muffler shop that installed my M6 mufflers. I was on the fence between 3.5 and 4 but they kind of sold me on the 4". No rubbers on the springs. As far as spacers, I assume you mean wheel spacers....I'm not running any since I'm planning to change the wheels to something with a more aggressive offset to feel in the wheel wells better.

I've tried to apply this to no success. Can you please give me the code you used?

Actually in the pic you see, my fog lights were simply turned on along with the parking lights. Although my car has been coded, I'm not sure if there is a code to run fogs when only DRLs are on. As I mentioned before, I know my car is coded for the DRL angel eyes to maintain full brightness when headlights are on. I know there is also a code to run fogs with highbeams

This is the one I was asking about. Do you know what needs to be changed?

My car was coded by EAS in Anaheim, CA. This option was simply one of their many coding options for our cars. They even have a list of options on their website.

Posting some new pictures of my car after some moderate modifications. It is an x-drive so I have lowered it with AC Schnitzer springs and rear 10mm spacers and front 5mm spacers. Very happy with the results, both how it rides, handles and how it looks
