I know there's gotta be a place out there that can do it all the places that make clear corner lenses. Anyone know anywhere?

I think you are right about our inside LED's being white, however I dont think it would be an easy or worthwile job for a manufacturer to try and make us white lines.

They would either have to make the lights from scratch, and if they were going for OEM specs, likely cost a lot more as they would not be ordering in the same bulk. Or, they would have to start with OEM's and add their clear outside and seal them, which again would make them cost significantly more than the OEM ones.

Hopefully the Whitelines offered for the 5 series are just the beginning of a trend of offerings that will be available for future models.
Oh for sure they would ether have to be made from scratch or alter an existing set. But I have an xtra set of tails and would be willing to spend some money to try and have someone create a clear lens for em. I just wouldn't know where to send them too. Darn I wish I was stateside.
