I agree, looks good and the black badge will compliment. However, I want my rear lights to be as bright as possible, so that some tailgating numpty dosen't run up my arse end.

You'd be better comparing with the lights (and brake lights on).

Looks good but you don't want someone claiming they didn't see your brake lights (whether it's true or not) and rear-ending you.

Looks better and needs the black badge, it's not a mod for me though wouldn't want to deliberately compromise my lights

There's not an issue with the amount of light being emitted from the brake lights the same way as the 3rd brake light is still perfectly visible through the tinted rear windscreen. If there was a drop in visibility then it wouldn't be legal and pass MOT standard

The tint is a mesh so doesn't compromise any light emission

Not for me as I think the contrast to mg of red lights looks better. I would have gone for lci rear lights instead but etto as said.

I was only joking really mate, BMW sell genuine smoked ones for the F20 so it's a lot more OEM than it used to be.
