OLED Tail Lights for F80 M3

s55jesus · 10-08-2020, 05:59 PM

Does anyone out there have more information regarding these OLED lights by Garage43 on Instagram? I DM'd them asking where to buy a set but they never got back to me and it's been like 2 weeks so I'm assuming they won't get back to me. Ever.

Those are OLED taillights that come with the CS F8x. Just Google OLED CS taillights and you'll find them. Beautiful taillight. Horrific price.

However, I know it's possible to sell a kidney for $10k on the black market so I'll post pics when I get that trade figured out.

The OLED Tail Lights only come on the F82 M4 CS and the GTS, not the F80 M3 CS.

M3 CS has the same LCI Tail Lights as the 2016+ F80's.

Something about the proportions and spacing of the light elements in that picture looks off if you compare those to the oem M4 cs/gts OLED design... kind of squashed and spaced in the wrong way like a bad lambo kit car.

I wonder if they cannibalized the OLED parts and put them in f80 taillight housing, or worse just did a slap dash job trying to recreate the effect

joooiiiiii · 10-08-2020, 07:47 PM

Didn't know anyone made those--probably not legit.

Read a post where dubsed on IG is making a cheaper version of these

Yeah I read about that on his post too but think he's working with a company on them. Not sure when they'll be released.

The taillights in this post doesn’t look very good. There’s not enough stacked lights compared to the real oleds in the GTS ones. They need twice as many in the corners to replicate the real ones.

getsituated91 · 10-08-2020, 11:11 PM

Shoot I’m still waiting for an affordable replica of the f82 ones. Nobody out there has an actual timeline as far as I know

edwinm3 · 10-09-2020, 12:50 PM

why? All that money for tail lights? No thanks

espressoo · 10-09-2020, 03:44 PM

I understand that it's pending any actual tests but how does what's posted look anything like this? The outer edge of the real GTS lights have 11 lights. The one posted has less than half of that. Sure, the F80 vs F82 taillights are different size and shape but that doesn't even look remotely like the GTS OLEDs.

It truly needs to look something pretty close to this to sell IMO.

bmwmdistrict · 10-09-2020, 06:00 PM

Yeah that knock off in the top post looks horrendous.

I like Dubsesd's render, I hope it comes out even better, as much as I dislike the coupe, the taillights look like they belong, that shot in OP looks pretty bad IMO

03Saleen · 11-20-2020, 01:40 AM

Looks like they are LED and not OLED but they do look pretty good.
