Oh E thug... Really. If you ordered those why would you bother with these?
The differance in quality is night and day. So sorry I missed it it where you mentioned that.

E thug? Wow... :drink: Yup, I'm sitting here e-drinking my e-40 of Old (e) while almighty you and your holy euroness tells me how it is with all things e30. OH WAIT - you're from NoVA / MD aren't you... not Deutschland. Nicht sehr kuhl.

I ordered those MHWs since 1) they were in stock with Mel and 2) they are a hot commodity so should I change my mind and not like them I don't doubt I could recoup most of my costs and get all-reds or go back to stock. Doubt me? Um ok, I won't whip out the e Dick and talk about how much I've done w/ various car projects, but lets just say I could have bought a lot of these silly smoked tails at this point. My e30 is the beginning of a long work-in-progress, I'm sorry I'm not currently up to your standards, mister oh-so-cool-because-I-have-german-in-my-name. The same guy who is asking about an Infinity BaseLink is telling me how crappy the product I _WAS_ considering is?!? Ironic?

I wanted to consider something different as I was eliminating all other amber from the car (euro bumper trim, smoked hellas / smoked front turns) so I figured, why put something on the BACK that was still amber, albeit "tinted" - clearly, from what I've heard, these so called "ebay" lights are not all they seem to be, and I appreciate the comments, except yours. Go find someone else's thread to be a cock-smoker in, kthxbye.

No wonder as much as he enjoys (enjoyed?) his e30 my friend HATES e30 owners. Guys, they aren't McLaren F1s minus the "body kit" - they are nice, accessibly priced RWD european cars, christ, even the VW and Honda kids get along better than this forum, it's weak-sauce if you ask me. All I wanted was some pictures / experiences not speculation / comments, I didn't think that was all that much to ask!

Wow

[skool]

In the eyes of beholder. I think they might not look bad on a dark car but not on that one.

And yes they leak and short out and they are cheap. So might be cheaper to save for a set of MHW's.

Which tail light leaks and shorts out?
the eBay one or the one from Schmiedmann?

[dmoffitt]

the eBay one or the one from Schmiedmann?

with the exception of the MHWs from Schmiedmann's it's my impression that those "other" ones are one-and-the-same re: poor quality :(

Ever thought that maybe your "buddy" meant he didn't like E30 owners like you? Holy crap - throttle down, the guy gave a simple opinion that you were soliciting, and in reality he backed you up for ordering MHW's. Maybe it's time for a glass of warm milk and an earlier bedtime.

If nothing else, channel that energy into writing one of those 'rants' for Craigslist - you're a natural!

nope, considering I know him in person vs random people on an internet forum :curse:

PS, way to quote something I wrote well over a month and a half ago, are you TRYING to start something / why are you needlessly inciting more BS :weak:

This thread can DIAF... I already long-since got my tails, it's pretty much a non-issue at this point.

PS, yes, I'm an angry mo-fo sometimes, forgive me for being so opinionated
PPS, your sig pic is quite sexy / enviable LINUS. that your car? or Vlads? or?

[LINUS]

Wasn't looking at thread dates, just saw this as the most recent topic. Not trying to start isht, just thought you came down a little hard. We all do it from time to time though.

Sadly, sig pic is FAAAAR from my car...mines wearing 2 faded repaints of Diamantschwarz.Once mine is repainted this spring it will be my sig.

Pic is from the "M3 - Szenen einer Karriere" book. Page 75 or so. Very cool M3 picturebook if you can get one. It's all German, but cool pics.
