F82 OLED tail lights from M Power Motorsports
I recently purchased the OLED tail lights for my 2017 F82 M4. I want to say, the experience with M Power Motorsports has been nothing but outstanding. I have to be honest, I was a little skeptical on reading the previous reviews but let me just say, I reached out to Abdul (the owner, he personally responded to my questions) on the chat window on their website right away. The main reason why I bought from a local vendor and not China, is "Customer Service". Abdul has been great on that. Definitely would buy again (any other parts) from M power. The customer services is great.
Apologies for the dirty car in the pictures . |

Yes, these lights are LEDs and not OLED technology like 9k lights on the M4. So you either get the OEM OLED lights for 9k or get these for $600.00. |

Actually, if they were purchased from one of the original manufactures in China (VLAND is one of them), they do have OLED technology in them - specifically the led "scales" on the lights. That is, according to VLAND (I specifically asked them), the China based company that I originally purchased my GTS style tail lights from.
That said, I did not "fact check" this company either and I am not losing any sleep over it. But based on what I know about OLED technology in these applications, it is not really that new or expensive. So for the most part, I am inclined to believe them. But at the end of the day, all that really matters is if you like the look on your car….

The lights look good in person.
I've parked next to a friends m4cs and it's ridiculous how similar they look. I'd say from the side is where the difference is most noticeable; from the back though especially more than 5-10 feet it's extremely difficult to discern the two. People hating for no reason, you gotta really be financially stupid to drop $10k on tail lights for a car that's essentially a supe'd up Bmw 4 series, this isn't a lambo where spending 5fig on cosmetics can be justified. The f30/f80 sedan gts lights shaped weird though. Suits the coupe much better. |

I couldn't be happier with the knock off OLED tails I bought for my F80 (VLAND). They fit absolutely perfectly and look great.
