Hi,

Is there anyone out there that can photoshop some smoked lamps onto the front of one of our beloved E30's please - preferrably in Blue. (front on shot)

I'd like to see what this would look like before going ahead with the change.

Many thanks. I've got my fingers crossed.

Yours hopefully! :P

Hi Bemma_boy & Stifla. I haven't got a head on shot that I can send you, but anything will do. I just want to see what it would look like. My man Stifla has the idea.

Any mockups you can provide, but using real smoked lamps would be very much appreciated. Please don't mockup the actual lamps, as I'd like to see the actual finish if possible.

Cheers guys.

Go for it. At the end of the day it's all down to personal preference, but you will be shouted down by the purist amongst us! :D

couldn't see those on Beemer's images, but presume he has some! Good point though.
