I think it's all going to depend on your particular set of resistors and LED bulb combination. Sorry to those who couldnt get it to work. but it worked for me using the exact combo I posted. i can't speak for other methods.
It's all trial and error though.
2 years later, my setup is still going nicely. very bright. and i've used these particular bulbs in 3 different cars (swapped them over). very durable , no issues.

^Doesn't the front of the facelift IS use the swoosh as the turn signal? In that case, I would suspect less resistance change (or no resistance change/no resistor) is needed to fool the car as now there's only one halogen turn signal vs 2? Or is the rear LED and front incandescent? I forget.

If you got the bulbs in the link provided by E46CT try them without resistors and see if they still hyperblink. Someone reported that even a 2014 worked without the resistors with these bulbs.

i just tried with no resistor still fast blinkin... any ideas? or maybe i need to instal 4 resistor for each turn light cuz i installed only 2 on the rear lights... i dont know.

i think i found out so i didnt touch front turn lights, just replaced rear new led bulbs + resistors, and works fine just rear led. when i put to the front Led bulb hyperflash started, so i think i need to instal 4x resistors, 2front 2 rear...

Oh yeah, I thought you had installed resistors on all 4 corners already. Yeah you need a resistor on each corner that you're installing an LED bulb.

Some people reported, which I believe was in this thread, that they had to install resistors on the front and the rear to get the bulbs to work with no hyperblink. It seems to be a guessing game as a few people that have 2018's confirmed that no resistors worked for them the same way it did for me. Try resistors on the front and let us know if it fixed the problem.
