should i paint everything except under the csl trunk line kind of like a mustang MACH 1 Note: on this picture i dont like how only one tail light is painted.I know i seen a e46 with it and loved it but can't seem to find a picture of it.

The last one to match your front.

What brand did you go with? I'm looking at a seibon one.

Very nice. I like the last one also, if I end up with a CF trunk that would be my choice.

Now you just need a CF roof!

Methinks all body colored.
But, if I had to choose between those, it would have to be the second one with just the lip exposed. I assume the rest would be body colored...

The last one is unique. I like that one and the exposed lip

i think i may go with the last one, only because my car is a bit of an aggressive look. Though i'm toning it down by painting the hood and possibly painting my wheels back to silver, i think the last one will still give it a bit of an edge look to it :D
