BiggieJ · 05-09-2006, 06:21 PM

Pretender · 05-09-2006, 06:28 PM

hahaha...why would I want to cover my 330i chrome trim to make it look like a 325i? Funny.

05-09-2006, 06:33 PM

Totally getto.

Tropicool · 05-09-2006, 06:38 PM

HRC · 05-09-2006, 06:47 PM

Sadly, it will sell like hot cakes, I'm sure. So the only thing I want from this is the Gouda this guy is gonna get!

that tape is like $5 at pep boys. i should start selling this stuff on ebay.

some people with other bmw models have been going this route to black out their trim. i was never a fan of using tape.

oh, and this is my friends car too. i think he photoshopped different wheels on it and mirrored the image to make it look different. what an ass.

voltron1011 · 05-10-2006, 12:09 PM

It's just like the clowns who are sellin 3M chrome-trim as "330 chrome grill kit" for 20 bucks!! It's actually just a 4.99 roll that you can buy at Autozone.

toolfan · 05-10-2006, 01:43 PM

The sad part is, people are bidding on this!

ska///235i · 05-10-2006, 08:35 PM

ROFL...there's actually 4 bids.....IDIOTS

parachute · 05-10-2006, 08:45 PM

dont feel bad, M3s dont have chrome trim so you know. It is way sportier to have the black trim. so basically m3 resembles 325s trim

ALPINE6SPD · 05-11-2006, 09:26 AM

he has pics so some Asshole fell for it.

tl_boy · 05-11-2006, 09:36 AM

I think blacking out is the only way to go if you have black or SG. M5's are blacked out too, and they are one of the most expensive bemers.

i don't know if its good for lighter colored cars though. this just looks like electrical tape!

HRC · 05-11-2006, 10:56 AM

If anyone likes that 'blacked" out look, great, just DO IT RIGHT!!! Get the actual pieces and install them! Tape is just wrong for a nice car. Hell, I wouldn't even tape up my Hondas.

tl_boy · 05-11-2006, 11:04 AM

Not even the old skewl red tape on the back tail of your accord/prelude? dude, we ALL used to do that!

lol

?? Not here in my neck of the woods! No tape on any of my cars. On my prelude, the only tape I had was 2 bayareaprelude.com stickers on the rear quarter windows!

we would buy reflector tape (red) and cut it out and place over amber on prelude Gen4. Trust me, it didnt look bad if you did it properly. Basically it was an overlay.

I know though, this is BMW, and the purists would have a heart attack!

Don't know, i think the vinyl overlays on the front headlamps looks good, but i know a lot of people think its not kosher.
