Heres a couple of pics with the newest appearance mods.
1-I replaced the running light sides with the euros.
2-Also replaced the amber turn signals with clears and painted the amber bulbs with high temp silver.
3-On the front bumper segment where the tag frame goes, I plugged the holes with plastic caps. Got the caps at a electronics surplus store for 40 cents. Used clear silicone caulk to hold them in place.

looks nice, I considered the clears

I wish I could find them for the rear in the same style as OEM. I think someone on the board may have a set.

bout a year ago on R3V someone was selling some tails just like stock but had clear instead of the amber turns. They were hawt!! They wanted like $400ish IIRC. I just went smoked all the way around. I like the clear look too though

I like the smoke look. I decided to paint (later) the black trim white so clears are the first phase.

BTW, why do some of the E30s have the side marker turn signal? Mine is a 1991 as far as I know.

I added the repeaters, I like the look and the extra function to let dumb drivers know I am going to turn. It helps stand out a lot, expecially at night. I got the clears instead of the smoked ones to help w/ the contrast. There are ones for the e30 that are slightly larger than mine, mine are off a e36/34...

The e36 ones are more slim than the taller e30 ones.

They look great! I may do that later on.

Good to see clears turn signals for a change.

FYI, bmp or bavauto sells front plate fillers as an alternative to the plastic caps. You're going to have to do some searching as I couldn't find it myself. Here's what it looks like (on Digitalwave's car)
