    Upgrading the tail lights on your E90 BMW isn’t expensive, but it makes a big visual impact on the look of the rear end. Installing these lights was simple and the whole job can be done in about 15 minutes. This is one of those modifications that I wish I had done a long time ago.
    These lights utilize the factory lightbulb module, meaning they are plug-and-play with no additional wiring or coding required. Since these use the stock light bulbs, there is no compromise in the visibility or reliability of the lights.
    Eventually, I would still like to do a full LCI conversion on the rear of the car. But for now, these are a much cheaper alternative and I’m really happy with how the car looks.

    I've been watching your videos for a while and just now noticed you're also from Michigan. Really considering getting an E90 and all of your videos on them have really given me a lot of outlook on them! At least now I know that this car can withstand the Midwest haha.

  • @erikalvarez4516

    I agree with you on the pre lci rear brake light but I have seen them on the lighter silver or even white cars and look so nice because that reverse light part really blends in a lot better and it really brings out the L shape accent of the rest of the light. I have a dark graphite e90 and was thinking about tinting the lens to a nice smoke to help blend it in better.

    I just discovered some pictures of the E90 clay model and a crash test prototype having a different taillight design than the production model.. There were no taillights mounted but the shape of the gap lets me think that they would've looked very similar to the taillights of a 2006-2011 Honda Civic Sedan or the 2005 Audi A4 Wagon. I don't know why they changed the design but I'm really curious about how the car would look with those pre production bow shaped taillights.

    I have problem on my 2011 328i xdrive, my dashboard lights not working, windows not working, fog lights not working... What can that be?
