I really like the look. Already have smoked headlights on my e21 (home made jobbie) and I love the look. Smoked crystals could look pretty amazing.. I'm having all sorts of ideas now..

Don't really wanna go single light, but may go golf mk1 crystal for all 4. Tommi could you email me the link please for the 30 squid ones. Don't wanna hijack Didl's thread.

hey zan i cant remember the link was couple weeks ago but they pop up all the time. and yeah they look like great quality, the only problem i could forsee is the chrome inside being poor so flakes but at the cheap price well worth it. if they get tired in 4 years just buy new ones :)

im gonna spray my grills gloss black tonight i think :) really do love that look!!!!!

Think I'd be inclined to go for e30 lights if sticking with 4 lamp set-up as there's more choice. I just got smoked crosshairs for £39 including bulbs.

black grill..great...it gives your car a aggresive muscle car look :twisted:
with black corner lights and smoked headlights..
a black bar at front and back of the car(black taillights) look great on the e21 i think..
