E92 Smoke Reflectors vs. Various Car Paint Finishes
I've seen an older thread on different reflectors, clear, smoked, carbon, and painted. I've heard a lot of pro's and cons for all of these options.
Here are my thoughts, the clear really sticks out specially when I have a lot of carbon fiber going on, however the carbon is almost to dark looks like a whole in the bummer, and painted while it matches sticks out and seems a little off. The smoked seems like a nice compromise, however I haven't seen a lot of different paint finishes for these different options specially for mine, smoked on Sandstone. Hope the forum can turn up some pics so we can compare the differences for reflectors. Cheers! |

For $75, I'll go with the painted reflectors.

+1 on the painted reflectors unless you have lots of free cash or maybe need a new bumper for some reason. I would prefer euro but I'm personally not willing to get the bumper just because.

If you have the money and inclination than Euro bumper would be the best option but I just went with color matched painted reflectors. Could be better but it's not bad imho.
Smoked, clear, etc is a bit too tuner style fast and furious for me
