Whilst hiding in the garage today with my car looking at the wind and rain I decided the standard side indicators are terrible .
I think there are a few kits on e bay does anyone have a recommendation please

Thanks

Its a 2011 E89 M Sport 3.0 I drive
 
I too fitted that style just yesterday and they do dress up the side wings really nice. I had mine from Sytners BMW and they charged me £80 for the pair, I had a 10% discount because I flashed my BMW membership card, but if you just ask for trade discount they usually oblige.

they are ok, but think it would have been better without the long tail on it :)

I think you’re probably right. It would have looked a tad more tasteful. One of the problems of being on this forum is that you keep coming across equipment you didn’t know you needed! Somehow you just get caught up in it all and before you know it yet something else has been ordered. :driving:

tis very true.
will probably end up getting some, but just cannot get excited about them.
its liking something enough to make you feel you must have them.
even tho i fancy a wind deflector, roof down on a roads its not bad at all.
 
Here are mine when I fitted to my 35i. They will be up for sale soon as I took them off before it went to the salvage yard, just got to give them a wipe over and fit some new 3M tape.

I changed mine, updates the car and smarter than the blobs, look inside wing when hood up and use long screwdriver to push fitting clip, on new ones gently bend back and forward small piece at end so that they fit perfect, plug and play. :driving:
 
I once saw a "how to fit video" for these on YouTube but spent the evening last night trying to find it again as ordered a part, has anyone got a link to the video as I couldn't find it
 
It's literally just plug in and push into place. Nothing more complicated
