Ford Blackline Update... (copy from BMW?)

Satalite · 04-16-2012, 04:23 PM

Sorry. I was walking to class today and spotted a new 2013 mustang. When walking past the rear I noticed that the tails were new. Did a little research and apparently FORD updated their US 2013 model taillights to the new "blackline" look.
I guess this is the new look these days?

And BMW can't get them approved? What the hell?

I think its the reflectors on the side or the fact that Blackline for BMW is rumored to be made out of glass.

I'm curious if the European regular LCI has a different part number than USA LCI
