Default Quick Question! Need Quick Answer

I need to know if these tail lights would correspond with my 318ti:

And the same story for these headlights:

Ok, what about these tail lights? I know they look the same, but they are shaped differently. I'm really stuck on these LED's on black. http://www.octanemotorsports.com/BMW...duct_info.html

The ti has specific tail lights, not shared with any other BMW model.

Argh!!! I was so stoked when I saw these! So what option does that leave me for my tails? Anyone bother to link to me a site with a vast collection of 318ti tail lights.

Go to DDM tuning for your headlights. Their prices are awesome. As for the tails I would either keep the stock ambers or just buy the oem clear tails.

I ordered a pair of the chrome with angel eyes and 3 led's at the top. Though I can't find any decent looking tail lights. I'm tired of the amber and I need something to match my silver hood decals and the soon to come chrome head lights. If I don't find any, I might just use window tint on the stock.
