Nope, don't like them, they look too modern for the e30.

i had those lights on mine, they seem to suit red and white E30's best. And as much as some people experiencing leaks, mine didn't!

Personally I think they make it look like a VW jetta but that's only my opinion. Look ok on some models but not others!

Dont' think they look right on E30s but as said they seem to suit some cars...
Hyperion, nice site. Must say, I thought she was Amy Nuttall, she was in Emmerdale, going out with that Ben Freeman.

Personally I think they look nasty, on almost every car I have seen them on.
Cliffy's looks ok, but we are probably being blinded by the chrome!
All reds are nice, I have a set of genuine ones on my old barge.
Pop to the next lakeside meet and you can see for yourself what they all look like on cars.

i think they only go with either red or white cars,anything else looks odd.if you do buy them and decide you dont like them itll be easier to spray them all red than standard lights as you wont be trying to cover any orange indicators.
