The answer to all of your questions is www.DDMtuning.com

You MUST get projector lights with proper cut-offs BEFORE getting HIDs.

You CANNOT put HIDs in the stock reflector housing because it has no cut-off for the HID, so it kills other drivers.

DDMTuning.com, although I don't know how much stuff they have for tis.

Ti's and sedans have the same headlights and taillights.

[E36 Phantom]

I can believe the headlights are the same, but no way the taillights are.

Watch me go check realoem.com and get owned.

rears are not the same as sedans haha

Rears are not the same- ti do however have the same rears as a touring- thats the only other car that shares the lights...
Iv never seen anyone selling LED rears for a Ti- the only non stock (other then just smoked or really crappy M style ones) iv seen are some really really nasty lexus style and if you buy them I will hurt you :)
Also really do steer clear of fake non oem rear lights if going for the m red and whites as most of them are 50/50 and genuines are about 75%red and 25% white so the white goes in line with the crease on the body work- if that makes any sense!!

But bear in mind these are OEM factory fitted- there may be some good replicas out there iv just not ever seen any :)

[amancuso]

Yeah there are some really good OEM replica tails available. This site has them approx $75.00 per side left/right http://www.rmeuropean.com :)

[oakley]

Infairness they do look ok on that site :) I take my previous post back! At least that company bothered to look at the OEM rear lights and get it right :)
