They'll probably be left hand drive fitment lights if from a foreign site.

Therefore you won't be able to fit them.

They'll physically fit but the light set up is different.

Re: Angel Eyes punto

As a matter of fact I don't even think that thae angel eyes look good on older BMW's I think they look fantastic on what BMW roll out the factory.

Before anyone slates me I am not anti modifying far from it its just I think its nice when a car look like it could have left the factory looking like it does modified ie: subtlety is probablt the word

The light background is black instead of a chrome:

Thats what i think like too, if it is made by fiat then its ok to have if its Ripspeed then its gay lol. i think Merkur make a set of lights simular but again they are foreign so would be illegal.

Re: Angel Eyes punto

Oh come on I know it seems bias now cause I only just put my avatar up but even so you catch my drift
Anyways its each to thier own I just find some cars can be modified so much that they make you cringe and as much as I used to like after market alloys its only certain makes of wheel that can cut it to look good and i would think wow

For instance BBS now they make cool wheels mainly that look good on German cars but on the GPS I have yet to find a nicer looking wheel than the ones that are on thier as standard I mean they are very nice.

Anyway it must be easier to sell a subtle and tastfully modified car than it would one that got every bell and whistle from Ripspeed/halfords No??

Re: Angel Eyes punto

PS Thought I might get grilled for the current avatar so going to take one of the merc and the GPS together as they are both Black it could look like either an advert for funeral cars or even more sinister mafia duo
