Yellow headlights

Post by ac/dennis »

Hi,

Been to france for holliday, My dad was in france to and at a local car wrecker he picked up a set of France/yellow headlights for 50 euro.
1 has a crack, but you almost can't see it. Underneath are the pics.
You can also see the alpina frontspoiler from Anders (E21Dane), it's not painted yet but looks cool allready.

Your car isn't from France, it's fake!

No seriously, I have 2 E21's with yellow lights, and I love them.
And they look perfect on your car as well ;)

alright... i have a semi ignorant question here... but why the yellow? is there some sort of advantage with them or is it just cosmetic?

For me its pure cosmetic, I think it looks better then the white lights.
Don't know if theyre better then white ones yet?

You can buy this from the local BMW-dealer, I bought to my Passat from a BMW-dealer...

It is for BMW E30 but it will fit E21 also...

Nice! I think it depends on your body color if yellow lights will look ok or not. By the way, thought you already had a Alpina front spoiler?
