where can I get some clear reflectors for the front on a 325 Ci? I remember some people talking about it . I looking at doing some simple cosmetic improvements . I have the clear turn signal lenses but my bulb is orange and looks like s**t ! no offense if you like this look but can I change to a clear bulb or maybe paint or color this bulb silver ? I think it'll look alot slicker .

So if you guys know a good co. that sells clear reflectors or bulbs would be great . Thanks in advance

Every comment that I have heard on clear reflectors state that they were very disappointed in the quality. Sorry, but I have not seen a recommendation for good ones anywhere, to date.

Ever think about painted ones?

For starters, paint your amber turn signal bulbs with a thin coat of High Temperature Silver Spray Paint, available at your local Home Depot.

Your bulbs will still shine amber when lit, but you wont be able to see the amber reflection within the lens.

As far as clear reflectors, good luck finding a decent quality set.
Anything you find on line or on Ebay is junk.
Id recommend trying the painted ones available at www.bimmian.com/reflectors.htm

Much better quality and easier to install.

Heres a pic of my painted bulbs....no orange reflection
