Short answer: unlikely - but there's a risk with any aftermarket part.

I dislike two things on those "GTS" style lights.
1. Most of them aren't really OLED, yet the sellers of course claim they are. 2. They were nice on the F8x cars, but why do we need the exact same thing again? That's just lazy and lame.

Agreed. To each their own, but thankfully it's their own and not mine.

They look nice but & believe they look more at home on the F80 tail lights (like mentioned here). The G80 units are much classier in factory trim.
And yes, WTF is the guy smoking in his car... ?

I like them. I didn't bother putting them on my F80 and likely won't on my incoming G80. If BMW had OEM ones I would buy them in an instant, although they would be super expensive, I just have a personal issue with "fake" or "impersonation" type items
I had a similar feeling back in the day when HID kits were the craze and people were putting on these 8K HID bulbs to "mimic" an S2000's projector lighting. Same with the fake LED rings. I put these in the same category-ish. Nothing wrong with them, they look nice - but don't know it is necessary to 'upgrade' the rear of the car.
