you can really see the difference in that split image i put 2 posts up^^
it makes it look more updated, since most cars are now colormatched. I am going to do a few things to offset the silver dominance on it, but i think it is cleaner and more updated imo.
Feel free to tell me i'm wrong

Well said and totally agree, with any car too. I've found a set for my Soarer, but I don't like the price (yes they are D-Speed ones).But it's a VERY nice lookin 3-Series now compared to before... good job O.L.T.

Eurospec?
That silver 3-series looks to me like it might be a gray-market car, or at least have a Euro-spec front bumper on it......most European countries don't have any bumper standards anywhere near ours. It looks pretty small for a U.S.-spec one.

Good job! I want to slap the guy who sold you the car. He doesn't deserve to own a BMW.
Crystallized clear lights for BMWs are chepo imitations you see on eBay and ricer speed shops.
Genuine BMW's European clear lights (as the ones I have on my car) used on the E36 M3 Evolution are whitish and have BMW emblems engraved on them, just like your amber lights.
You can buy a set of Genuine BMW European taillights from Bekkers for about $240 and front turn signals for $65 or so.
