My predicament is that the lights don't seem to add up together with the rest of the car. Not sure if our local cars differ from overseas.Front - Hella angel eye front lights with white indicator housing (xenon projector), wide chrome kidney grills, pre-facelift bumpers front + back, side linings have the chrome stripSide - orange side signal markersRear - orange rear lights (non-Celis type)As far as my research has taken me, the wide chrome kidney grills are not correct. But I am not sure about the orange rear lights which are non-Celis. I took it off and to my surprise, found two holes drilled below the original holes (picture below). But, further research also showed that retrofitting Celis requires more than the 2 holes. It requires having to shave the rear fog light housing as well. So, the question is, was the car having a Celis rear light? If so, I intend to put it back on Celis. If not, should i just get the white non-Celis rear lamps or should i just go ahead and do a Celis conversion?<img src="http://i864.photobucket.com/albums/ab206/Tommy328/BMW%20E39/IMG_5749_zps8dd38355.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
