orange grill strip and calipers with steel grey?
« on: October 15, 2016, 07:40:49 pm »
when I had my oem xenons coded the orange indicator lights were set to be on (less bright) through vcds .
this has given me an idea!  how about orange grill strip with orange calipers -   just think orange, grey and black would look really nice?
what do you guys think?

only problem would be the red tail lights...  maybe darken them with ed30 lights? ...

No.
Hehe, no if you like to keep things oem.

Why not have a go and make your own mind up? It might look sh*te, or it might look spot on, to your eyes. Nothing wrong with trying things out.

If you don't like it, paint the lipstick and calipers red again and feel better for having a go.
