Ask if they are the OEM BMW clears or some knock off. OEM work perfect, but ive heard that non-oem clears have fitment problems.

If they were from some mass market ebay dealer, I wouldnt trust him. However since this is obviously just some guy who has had them on his car, you'll probably be safe. At worst you lose ~30 bucks, not much of a gamble

woah woah... Why the hell would you punish him when you're the one buying an after market lens kit. ALL aftermarket lenses are CRAP, don't give him a negative for that. Some look okay, but there are NONE that come out with such a consistency to compare to OEM.

As a seller (and buyer) on ebay, I'm asking you to put a little common sense into your purchase. Don't go throwing around negatives for things that are not deserved. Some people take pride in their 100% feedback.

I think he's entitled to leave negative feedback if they dont _fit_. Whether or not they are aftermarket is irrelevant if the seller says they will fit a specific model fine. If they dont, then hes lying, thus the feedback is valid.

As for looks? Well thats subjective and a different thing
