LCI lights were, but are not "blacklines" (tinted) from the factory. They're just as red as the pre-lci lights, but with different internals and styling.

Nice... What's your experience with the BMS oil catch can, have you collected residue and does it really work?

I know for the N54 engines the catch cans are kind of a necessity due to the excess carbon build up. But for me with the n55 engine I have collected a little residue even though there is suppose to be a lot less. I just empty it every 8 months or so, I mostly just got it to be on the safe side.

That's the spirit. Drive + protect.

It takes me six minutes to do it; it's a part of my routine car wash.

That hurts. I have similar damage on my G37 and I can't fall asleep after that.
