New Tail Lights

What are your views on these tailights, I think they might look good against a black X5 but would like some opinions? Anyone here possibly already have them installed?

I'd be interested to see them installed also. Where did you find these?

Personally do not like the look. A bit too "boy racer".

I've always liked the look of the Lexus RX clear tails on Black.

Totally subjective thing.... I think they look far too "Fast & Furious" and on a black X5 would stand out and look like someone smashed out your OEM lights leaving only the silver reflectors. If anything, these would look best on an Alpine White or Ti Silver X5 for a more colour keyed look.

Again, it's a subjective thing but get them if you think they'd look good. I'm sure there are others who would be interested in seeing what they look like when fitted. After all, your sig tag line should guide you.

Besides, these clear lights look good on Lexus, on a BMW it will give it a identity crises.

I think the overall idea the moment is that its cheap and nasty so maybe a better conversion is the 4.8is tailights?
