Sorry Alex, I should have specified "color shopped" -- since it looks like some colors have been "enhanced" a bit. ;)
Hehe, OK, accepted :D But as Tom said, it's looking really weird, somehow.. :dunno:

Honestly I think it'd be a hell of a dope addition to any 3'er if they weren't BLUE rings, and if the corners were amber (following the 5'er look, instead of the ricer look).

BTW, I find it even more of an oddity that the word "ricer" is censored. :yikes:

the blue color is from the LED's that are in there. The amber corners, or even clear corners look stupid with them. So I disabled the corner lights, and the only blink with the turn signal.

The new generation rings are supposed to be exactly like 5 series rings in color and intensity also

Maybe the angel eyes aren't shopped but the cement looks awfully yellow...
Exactly what I was thinking; almost sepia-ish. And as we all know, blue on yellow = attention grabber.

chukiechz, it'll be interesting to see how they look (the new ones).

If the picture was taken with a SLR (film based) camera or Digital Camera without white point correction, this is what happens when you take a picture under mis-matching lighting conditions. Tungsten based lights (Halogens and Filaments) require the use of Tungsten film for night time photography, Florescent lights are just simply CRAP for night time photography, and require heavy filtering. Normal film is suited for daylight use only.

Some mid to pro-sumer digital cameras offer white point correction to fix this particular problem.
