Custom LED Door Projector

Whats your thoughts on these LED door projectors? You can pretty much get any logo you can think of.

My personal opinion is that it's tacky.

Things like these can be put on to an extent, yes they look nice, but don't start to put things on a bmw just to make it look "cool". Keep them they look nice. Just don't start putting too many tacky things on the car, like M sport stickers/logos, stickers on the windows, don't make it sound like a fart can, don't add a crazy ass spoiler, don't go paint the colour of your rims like blue or red, etc. If you want to upgrade the look of your car in a nice classy/sporty way you can purchase M tech front and rear bumpers to give you that more aggressive look, you can wrap your roof in a nice black so it looks nice, you can buy a lip spoiler, you can change interior lights to LEDs, you can upgrade your halo lights if you have em to white colour like LUX's, etc. Just keep a reminder that you don't want to overdue things and make yourself look like a ricer lol. But overall man have fun with your car and take good care of it.

I have those too! out of all the mods to my car everyone always comments (all positive) on the door lights. My Range Rover comes stock with them so I decided to get them for my 335 and never regretted it.

I dunno, I'm on the fence with this one. I don't see why I would be greeted with a BMW logo when I know I'm getting in one. On the other hand, it does kind of cool but eh, it's not for me.

I do like what BMW did with the G11/12 7 Series though. It's a simple illuminated light "carpet" of sorts. Not too over the top and in your face, but looks nice.

I have them installed on my car and everyone that sees them compliments me, I got them on Amazon for like $15. I would say go for it because even if you don't like it it's easy to go back and they're cheap.

It's fine as long as you don't put an LED ///M but drive a 328.

Word to the wise though, I got them on Amazon for like 20$ and it came with 2 sets of replacement projector lens (which is why I bought them on Amazon) because after around 6-8 months the projector lens that make a BMW logo will burn out and get a cracked look. It's easy to put in the replacements, all you need is a flat head or your key.
