Gray Headlight Trim on New BMW's --1er headlight solution?

mistermojorizin · 10-10-2008, 04:31 PM

Can we get gray film that looks like the gray trim on the x1, 7 series, and z4 concepts we've seen, fashion it to cover all of the amber, and give a nice downsloping eyelid/eyebrow for our 1ers?\

Yes, these are prevalent in most of the newer cars (5,7 etc) but I believe it is part of the actual headlight housing inside. It would look nice though.

yes they are part of the housing, but we could get some color matched film, apply it to the outside like tint, and get the same effect

hmm...i like this idea. it has a nice effect without looking as blatantly obvious as normal eyebrows.

Looks nice, too bad we won't see that look in North America. Maybe we should start a lobby group to allow for white reflectors as an option on the front.
