clear, smoked or painted front reflectors?
 
When I pick up my 4.8 tomorrow, I have a few mods that I already have planned for it. One of the first was to get painted reflectors. That was the original plan, but now I found clear and smoked reflectors as well. I had clear on my e46 M3 (I've since switched to the euro bumper, no reflectors) which was titanium silver, which looked pretty good. On the 4.8, I'm wondering if the clear will work with space grey.

The reason I hesitate about the painted reflectors, is that it is going to look out of place having a small patch that is painted, even if it is the same color. On the clear reflectors, it doesn't stand out as much, ironically enough.

Here's the link for clear & smoked reflectors:

I can see clear working with space gray. Not smoked though.

I have white and I don't think either clear or smoked would work. The current yellow doesn't exactly either though. ;)

Definitely painted! That's what I have on my space grey. Clear or smoked wouldn't look as good.

I agree, painted.
