The quality is great, actually heavy when you hold them. You will need to have them welded on. If you try to use the clamping method, they will stick out the back too far. Here's the way I cut both sides to get the correct length out the back.

Thanks for the pic!

Gives me a good idea of what needs to be done.
Looks like yours is welded on really nicely.

My LCM is original. I changed out the faceplate for the rear fog capability. Headlights are also original adaptive Bixenon.

BMW was colorblind back in the days, where there were 2 blacks, about 5 shades of gray/silver, white, and a silverish blue (toledo).

Nope - Jet Black and Sapphire Black were the 2 blacks offered for the entire 1999 to 2006 model years (at least here in the North America market). Most people (included myself) chose Sapphire because it's a bit easier to maintain.
