Maybe I am just not in the "know" but can someone please confirm that there is no one that makes clear bumper reflectors for 2004+ M3 coupes???

If someone does, would you kindly provide a link. Thanks

Well ideally I want to buy clean one and then smoke em. My car is silver gray so I think that would look good. Painted ones, imho, look hookey.

Vader you think painted would look better than smoked? I am hesitant on the clears now because all of them are crappy taiwanese knock offs that require modding the bumper which I really don't want to do...

Anyone have a photo of a silver gray car with painted reflectors? THANKS!

If you go to any body shop they will pop your reflectors out and paint them for you. I had mine done and its actually better than the first ones I bought that were prepainted. They actually matched the car better.

Painted would look hot man..smoked on silver is OK, my GT3 was like that but I think painted is the way to go.

I've been trying to find these too, I thought Understeer/Modbargains sold them? Or are those for pre-04? I don't really like the look of painted ones either.

How does this not look totally super awesome, I even had mine clearbra'd w/bimmerfreaks stealthbulbs in stock corners.
Clear would look cheap, smokes would look like shat!!!
Better to stay stock than even do that..
