So the blackline style tail lights started to anger me each time I looked at my car since they were too dark for my liking. Also felt the red on my OEMs were contrasted better with the body colour. I'll have the blacklines till Friday, Saturday I'm shipping them back to original seller so anyone interested please reach out (06-08 e90 smoked blackline).

I'd take OEM blacklines (these in particular were smoked DEPO) over LCI refresh. Not to mention the additional cost of painting SGM + coding in LEDs would be quite expensive too (and I just bought fresh coils + spark plugs + few other items for the car too). Next items on the list: sway bars, lowering springs, new rear tires, headers (when I find a set for reasonable price).

Ouch, hope everyone involved is alright.
It should be a slam dunk case for you as the burden of proof is on the other guy.

I don't think you can go wrong with the OEM blacklines. They look fantastic. Just gotta keep eyes open for folks looking to sell theirs on e90post. I had to jump on my Performance Exhaust the second someone was selling one since they go fast haha

didn't even last a year, but she is now gone! Infiniti has made me fall in love with their interior, and i truly do hope to one day own a Q50 or something of the likes, money pending of course. Til then, the new car!






Once again, thanks tofu for the deal and BJ has gone above and beyond this time to allow me to get into a different car! Couldn't ask for a better experience this time around, and more dealers out there need to follow your guys' example!

Put new wheels on the whip, feels great to have some sidewall!! Coming together slowly, got a bunch of work done to it at Aria Auto. Next I have to adjust ride height and other little bits.
