Gauging Interest: Glass Replacement Lenses For Late Fogs?

+1. I bought a set with the acrylics already installed, and they've been fine so far.

thanks for not telling us how long you've had them when talking about a product being okay for however long you've had it.

My brother also had acrylic on his 318is, but they were brand new, and he only ran them for about 2 months before he totaled it...They seemed to be good quality, I couldn't tell the difference between his and mine, which I know are glass.

I had to read it thrice.

Spoke with the boss of a pattern maker shop that my buddy works at re: making the molds for these. The cheapest quote i got from other glass manufacturers was $7,000 for the molds.

If i can get that price down to around $3-4,000 though my buddy, i might go through with it.

Whats wrong with the ones that bmwlight.com sells?
I bought a set of fog light lenses and when I got them they was glass.

How crazy was the install? I don't know if I'm comfortable 'chipping away' at the old fog light; as the website puts it.

I'd be in for two sets - yellow for sure!

I've had them installed for about three months, but only working for six weeks or so. :crazy:

I bet the glass company could sell the lenses to a bmw vendor.

There are new fog light kits on ebay for $40. How about trying to get ahold of the manufacturer to see if they can sell you a shipment of just lenses. They look pretty legit.

i think youd be better off trying to sell etiquette lessons to charlie. the day id gamble 7k on e30 owners is the day i want to be mowed down by a r3v member drifting thru a corner on 4 different sized bald tires. you will be my age before you realize a profit
