For $175 you can "kinda" remove them.

Black with orange I think looks fine. Blue with orange not so much.
From the IND site? I'm most likely going to keep the stock reflectors with my black grill. I'm also keeping the side grills chrome as it compliments the BSM and side mirrors pretty well.

Or for $1295 plus paint, you can completely remove them

lol don't forgot you have to add paint for +600 on top! That would just be a rediculous way to have no front reflectors.

I think the front reflectors look fine in all the colors. You don't really notice it unless you look for it.

LOL just another option, didn't say it was cheap :P

Yep I agree, they blend well on the M2. Now on the 240, they stand out way too much IMO.

Just noticed on the m240 it's shorter but thicker which does make it stand out more.

Weird, indeed.





My front and rear reflectors have been swapped. The amber bulbs too.
Just say no to orange.

I went with BSM and the blacked out look as well, grilles, side gills, ind reflectors. When you say the amber bulbs - is it 'legal' to remove those? and what did you replace them with?

I don't mind the rear red reflectors but thinking of swapping them out to the slatted version of the fills that the guy on here is custom making.

Sure. They still light up orange.

Let us wait and see if you will even keep this long enough to put 1 mile on it...

These here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/201689518990

I don't recommend them. The quality is less than desirable. The mirror side of the cover is unfinished- really not happy about that. If I can confirm Autoid's are finished, I will order a set of those. https://autoid.uk.com/products/perfo...nt=27061943303
