M6 Side Fender marker help
I am planning on changing my OEM side markers. I have 3 options; IND carbon fiber which cost ~$695, Rw carbon overlays that go on w 3m tape ~$230, or plasti-dip chrome finish black $10.
Picture of the overlays is attached, has anyone purchased these? If so how is the look and quality? Thanks.

I like the carbon look so I bought the IND markers. They're made from the OEM cores so the fitment and function is perfect. To me the overlays are gonna pop out too much and it may be obvious it's a cover.

I agree with Twitch with the carbon fiber side marker from IND, I have the same side marker on my car and fittment was perfect,took about 5mins for each side.

I had my local custom painter remove and paint them body color. If your car is black or SG, I like that option. If the lighter colors, black is a good color to paint them.
Cost me less than $150.

RR, looks great. How did you darken the "m6" lettering? My body shop said we had to keep it silver. Thanks.

Jvise sorry about that but from the angle I took the picture the M6 looks darken but it comes chrome from IND. I am sure you can ask them to black them out for you for a little extra charge.

Thanks for the clarification. I had previously asked IND and they stated since that part was a decal, the color couldn't be modified. I'm fine with the chrome. Overall looks excellent!
