E55 with optic blue covers???

Hey guys, I am about to order a set of lamin x headlight covers.. But its a toss up between a light tint and the optic blue..
Does anyone have a pic of an E55 with the optic blue coves on?
I just want to make sure it doesn't look too ricey.

They won't last long. None of em know what torque is, and most don't know anything about rear wheel drive. lol

Come on man that is just a silly statement....If you love cars, then you should respect Japanese (albeit many are fwd) as there are plenty of 9 second drag cars and plenty that are great road race cars...sure they may not have 500+ ft-lbs at 1500 rpm, but they do have 500+ hp at 9,000 rpm...

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
Might as well get badges for the rear end for those that start down this path. PepBoys has them on sale I understand. Most ricers around me are Neon and Focus drivers. BTW OP, noticed you have a Z32, you on any of the boards, cardomain?
