I actually like the painted reflector's, I just jumped on the clear ones when I did it because I saw those first, and it was a impulse buy. Maybe I will change to painted ones eventually, but as long as they are not Heinous Heinz Mustard yellow anymore, I am happy.

i think 60 is a very hefty price for these things...

Do they make clear reflector's for the back bumper reflector's? I want to change mine to clear / white, & don't want to paint the ones I currently have in case I give back one day.

Haven't seen clear rear reflectors, I know that IND has the painted rear reflectors though.

not a fan of the smoked or clear.. i still think leaving it stock amber or body color match looks the best

True, probably going to go that route most likely

Still no word on either clear or smoke for MSport?

I had painted ones on my e92 335..

Do they make painted side markers for F36 (4 GC)?

Buy vinyl to match the car (or as close as possible) and put that on. Then you can pull it off when you give the car back or get tired of it. Vinyling the reflectors is super easy, because you have the edges to run the knife around to trim.

I bought a $9 roll of carbon fiber tape from Pepboys. I Hope it stays.
New to the bimmer community and all the available mods for them. My Audi Q7 which I traded doesn't have this much options. The fun begins!

Anyone have photos of the smoke reflectors on a black sapphire?

Carbon fiber tape isn't a half bad option. Debating if I want to keep mine as is or do something with them.
