[exexpat]

Europeans love amber lights!

Kollegen aus Deutschland, bitte eure Bilder posten! Ihr wohnt im Hauptland des Amber-Blinkers (und auch Ketchup irgendwie auf fast alles - inklusive Spaghetti :(, aber das ist was anders...)

Just wierd shit that despite me living years there, speaking the language and having several German friends, I just don't get it. Plus, they tend to assume we'll love amber (because we have them here) and as Americans we should consume more ketchup - but I go through a bottle about every two years and I have German friends consuming a bottle a week. At one point I was thinking of setting up an amberexchange.com website to let people from Germany and the US trade turnsignals, but despite the good idea and extreme high demand on both sides, I doubted it was worth the effort.

Back on topic. Where's the pics?

This car doesn't have these headlights anymore, sorry for the stock height, should be bagged within the next couple weeks.

It's Aledelic42's car, if anyone was wondering.

Usually parking lights here are amber, we call your parking lights "city lights".

e36's look so wrong with clears, some cars simply need ambers

i think clear can sometimes cheapen the look of certain cars too

My old car.
Changed the amber lamps after a friend bought me some white flashers for my birthday.

BTW: I just love fried/roasted (?) spaghetti with cheese an ketchup. Best simple food ever. But i didn't know that was a typical german thing.

[doninphi]

Front defo needs to go lower...thought I'd try clears on too, hmm I do like Ambers, but think actually clears suit mine quite well...

(I know the image is a bit twisted but I wanted to keep the back the same height as it is as it's as low as it will go without lots more work and money! lol)

Fried spaghetti with scrambled eggs and Maggi. BEST EVER.:cool

Amber lamps... First thing I threw out on both my E36s.

I have some pics of my old Mk3 with amber turns, though.

[benz88]

another of mine. Only reason the amber doesnt go all the way to the front is cause the sidemarkers got 2 bulbs. The one in the front clear part is bright and acts as a spotlight when turning. The one in the amber is the flashing one.
