I do remember the tide turning in the BMW world a few years ago, probably when BMW themselves stopped selling cars with amber lenses, everyone decided to go back the other direction. I've had people tell me I should do ambers on my car and I'm like really? Sunflower Yellow and 90's Plastic Orange? Thanks but no.
It seems like the VW people just have to fuckin' change everything for the sake of changing it. So many guys have already swapped out grills, trim, headlights, taillights, etc. Some of them bitch so much I don't know why they bought the car. "The B-Pillar is too shiny" :evileye:
I personally think the US got the best looking taillights, the Euro LED one are too busy, the euro non-LED don't actually have an amber lens but are more like the "Egg Yolk" look of my E36 lenses where you have a clear lens but can see the orange bulb, doesn't look nearly as clean as the US all-red ones. :dunno:
