I have a set of DEPO blacklines on my E90 that I got cheap, and well, I HATE them. I will gladly GIVE them to someone if they pay shipping once I get different tail lights.

They are cheap, look like crap, light bars are sagging, etc.

I have been dealing with this for awhile, but I can't take it anymore. Look fine during the day, but not so much at night.
I want OEM blacklines (or atleast QUALITY taillights) not these DEPO POS's.

Our car are getting older, so now way am I trying to spend $400 for taillights... I look on the forums all the time, but have missed out on a few pairs.

Anyone know who has the best pricing for OEM blacklines? Some BMW dealer has to have a box of these things they are looking to get rid of at a good price.

If not, I am getting red overlays for the OEM pre-lci tails and calling it a day!!
I prefer blacklines for my black car, but this does look good too... http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=704087

I will take the depos off your hands and pay shipping when you figure out what you want!

I forgot which dealership i got mine from new at, i believe it was from their ebay store (I have to check, but I think it was Morris town NJ BMW). I remember back in the day they were new for $265, I think I got mine for about $300, and now they might be higher... but no way they should be $400. Also I am so happy with my BMW Blacklines that I'm glad I didn't get the Depo's. Mine came with the silver bulbs so I don't get the egg yolk turn signal bulbs too!

Do you think you can check where you got them?
I know some dealers did sell them around $265ish for awhile, I'm kicking myself for not jumping on that.

Some dealers also run good discounts on oem parts... Like 40% off or something.

They do retail around $400... But the pre lci sedans are old now so I would hope they aren't that much anymore.

I have orange turn bulbs, not the silver stealth bulbs, and oddly, I actually like the egg yoke look for some odd reason?
Maybe it's the JDM kid in me (used to have an eclipse, then a Nissan) and JDM taillights always had the orange turn signals. haha.

I'll give them to you if you find me a good price on OEM ones! Consider it a finders fee ha.

If I find you one will you ship the depo's to me?
Also, whats the budget? I'll try to find the cheapest but what is your max?

You can use the following web site to compare BMW prices:

Here's the cheapest:

eBay probably has the best deal. BMW of San Diego:

They pop up in the Classifieds on occasion. Or the links AlpineweissIS provided seem to be pretty good deals, too.

Yea, I've missed out on 2 pairs of OEM's over the last 6-10 months probably...

They don't seem to pop up like they used to.

I'd really love a used set for 200ish... or a new set under $300 but that may not be realistic...

Trust me, I know...the waiting sucks. I waited a while to find my pair but was able to snag a set for $250 this past winter. Good luck, man!

Just wait... over time, the heat of the bulbs, sun, etc... will start to take their toll.

I am sure brand new they look fine.

Also, I do believe DEPO switched who actually made the lights at some point If I remember correctly.
I guess the newer ones might be of better "quality" ...

I like that the DEPOs are darker than the OEM ones... but at this point, I want OEM ones...

If I can't find then under $300 ... I am leaning towards the red vinyl over the stock OEM lights for the "all red LCI" look... even though I love the want the DEPOs look on my black car.

Thanks these are all good links!
I am really hoping to under $300 but I doubt that exist anymore.
I know awhile ago, a dealer was selling them for like $275ish brand new. Id love to find a deal like that again.

[MineralweissIS]

There's a new set of OEM tails for $300 with free shipping on eBay right now! Tenafly BMW. Go get em!

Your link points to a set of DEPO lights, which the OP has and is not happy with.
