E63 Conversion Bumper / Amber Lights
I didn't notice it before, but I do now. I bought the E63 bumper and skirt set from Gary and noticed there is no place for the amber lights in the bumper. What do most folks do? Just leave them without bulbs? Is there a resistor or relay I need to install?
I have done a search btw.

We just spent 3 weeks going to frame on a truck and bringing it back. It was delivered to the home shop on thursday morning and we have since spent roughly 30 hours (thurs and fri) getting it back together. Today was a 10" lift (about 7 hours).

I like the look too but if I had the option of doing euro impact strips for the facelift W211 I would, I think it's a bit cleaner. You'll probably learn to like the non-sidemarker look anyway honestly.

I like the cleaner look - but on that specific area I just don't care. Sometimes not having factory specific will bother me - other times the shaved look will be cool. I do prefer it from a waxing standpoint lol. At least the info is out there for others. If I can figure out the resistance - I will try to make a plug for the light.
