I love the profile! Was always a fan of the Z3 M Coupe - a real love it or hate it shape...

Sure some styling tweaks are necessary for it to be as good as the stock coupe.

My opinion is that any major mods such as carbon detailing and Trd kit need to go in conjunction with bigger wheels. I am a big fan of the rear lights though... Think I passed you on the N1 a week ago... What exactly did you do to tint the light?

Is it a spray or film?

@ Kev, its a spray, none of the films finish off neat . the tailight has too many curves and sharp corners.

four bolts and the tailight is out, give it a quick 1200 grit sand down (with water)
wipe clean, and spray on. one can is more than enough for both lenses. leave to dry for about an hour. then put them back on. i left mine to cure for a week after, before i could polish it down for a shine. im still waiting for the guys to get stock of the clear, that finishes it off.
