Shame if you got a 2019 M2c and you know, enjoyed it all this time. I mean to think if you only waited several more months you could have had tinted tail lights.

Looks pretty similar... I was hoping they'd come out with an actual dark tint version

What--the non functional vents, random scoops and cutouts in the bumper, grille that barely fits on the front end, and zero concave multi spoke wheels didn't give it away?

Definitely will be interesting to watch - maybe they will take a different approach, compared to VO or LBB....

I prefer the current lights. Darkened looks a bit cheap. I like how the current taillights have a bit of 3Dness to it opposed to just a dark shade. I am really glad I got a 2019 honestly.
I think the release also mentioned adaptive LEDs get black inserts. Wonder what that would look like. |

Tinting tails is an all new low.

Anyone can tint the taillights with a simple wrap (if they must). I'm hoping that they start allowing the US cars to have true Euro adaptive headlights instead of the on and off dumbed down ones that we have now.
