petemoss812 · 12-31-2006, 07:38 AM

Viperjp7 · 12-31-2006, 08:46 AM

can you still order or is it to late I just found this thread

OrangeCounty949 · 12-31-2006, 11:04 AM

How do I go about ordering these in Jet Black?

longtran · 12-31-2006, 12:32 PM

yes. please paypal to longtranseventynine@yahoo.com

Zirenz2006 · 12-31-2006, 01:32 PM

I just picked up my Graphite 335i coupe yesterday . I just did this mod and it looks great. If anyone is thinking of getting them in Graphite they match perfectly!! I will post pics soon.

Thanks again Long!

BTW: After using the hair dryer I used an old credit card as well. I started at the bottom and ran the card up carefully. That bumper is very flexible so be careful. It worked perfectly.

bavarian19 · 01-01-2007, 01:27 PM

smokin · 01-01-2007, 01:43 PM

No kidding. I was really upset at BMW when they didnt do the simple bumper reflector instead of putting the reflector in the headlight housing on the E90.

as u guys know its new year. the guys at the body shop got lazy half day and decided to take half day so they didn't do the reflectors. tomorrow will be a regular day and hopefully they will be up and running regular hours. if so, they will go out tomorrow. happy new year!!!

ArmyBimmerDude · 01-02-2007, 08:35 AM

Hey Long,

Just got the side reflectors today, They look really nice. Thanks for all the work you put into getting these done man!

picus · 01-02-2007, 01:16 PM

Got mine @ unicalex's reflectors today, they look good. I think one was baked a bit too slow but I can take care of it.

M335i · 01-02-2007, 01:24 PM

Did the Black Sapphires go out yet?

picus · 01-02-2007, 04:13 PM

Here are mine, installed today.

Install was easy, definitely use the hair dryer liberally though. I tried after 30s and nothing. Left it on for 2 more min and they popped right out.

If anyone gets a marker with a little "haze" on it, it's just solvents popping, use a little scratchX to remove it. No biggy.

FWIW, the color match is *very good*. Silver/grey is tough to match and I am impressed with how close it is. Definitely an awesome $85 mod.
