'03 E55 orange front side lenses replaced?
Is it possible to replace the orange front side lenses (see pic below) with clear ones? I did this on my Carrera, and it's a much cleaner look. Anybody know where I can get these? The pictures I've seen of european cars don't have these--looks alot cleaner.

Not the clear lenses, but painted to match. Looks clean:

I think this looks a lot better than painting your current lenses. You should be able to order the euro strips from someone, maybe even evosport. I plan to put the euro strips on when I get my E55.

Also keep in mind that you'll never get a perfect color match unless you have a body shop color match the new paint to your car. On the painted lenses, they're so small that even if they're off a shade or 2, it won't be very noticable. Ordering euro bumper strips and having them properly painted is going to add up.
