And then you can have a lovely little bit of chrome covered plastic on the side of your car to go with ........ the badges that should be removed. :lol:Mikopop said:Gents
Seriously, they look like they were not quite finished designing them and it slipped their mind until production day when they chose to put what looks like blanking plates over the hole where the side indicators should be!!!!!
I'm all for healthy debate...........
Photos I hope

As opposed to a shapeless piece that some of you feel the need to disguise by badly painting over it...........
But hey each to their own.

Yep. Thanks for the dig about badly painting, I am not a painter and these were done quickly one afternoon but you are the only one to comment. It doesnt look great in the close pic though but is actually alright.
I do agree though that from the factory its a bit odd to stick an opaque white square on the side of the car and hope that it goes with all colours. The only car it would look good on would be a white car where it would be hidden. Thats why I tinted ours to hide it a bit.
The LCI indicators dont do it for me, they should have kept it clean and left them in the badges like the E85.
A bit of bling never done anyone a bit of harm,kish_t said:Very nice!!

I am flattered if slightly concerned re your stalkerish behaviour in reading my previous posts in no way connected to this topic. Had you spent just a few seconds more of your no doubt invaluable time and read them properly you would realise my comment was that I had seen them advertised, not that I had purchased them.
Fair play to anyone who has them, that's their choice.
Back to topic if I may, how many owners with Lci indicators have gone backwards and fitted the early blob indicators????
I'm sure the deafening silence will prove the point.
No Diy bodger here........

Calm down dear, I remember your post about the wheel centres when you posted it and as you were also from Scotland I remembered it, no stalker issues here.Mikopop said:Nictrix

We just have a difference of opinion over something that can be changed and all I pointed out was that they could be tinted instead which I think looks better than white. It might not be a completely professional job but as I said nobody else has commented and it looks worse in the pic.
Why would anybody go back to the old style after spending money replacing them?
Im not sure what you mean by deafening silence though....... or DIY bodger.
Anyway now that you have mentioned previous posts I had a look at yours, where are the pics of your car?

Very nice mate.
But for the love of all things Z, please get those side indicator blobs updated.
Still can't believe those were ever designed into a car like the Z.
Is it just me that prefers the earlier indicators? Theyre more discreet and just there to serve a purpose.
Yeah I'm with you, I think the new ones look like they are straight from Halfords and look like plastic tat ..I much prefer the original ones

Almost, you need to break the lugs off the back as they are not required on earlier cars. They just snap off very easily, whole job takes ten min..Mikopop said:Yes sir, plug and play.
There are a few posts re this, the first tasteful minor mod that I did on my car.
Do a search on lci indicators.
