Installed OEM LCI laser taillights on G22; minor flickering issue help
I recently installed LCI laser taillights on my idrive7 M440i. I tried to code it with BimmerCode but no luck. It’s not too much of a big deal as it only happens during start up and shut down. It has something to do with the cold/warm bulb check monitoring pulses. Anyone on here that can help and has the fix? Thanks in advance.

I have updated my CSL style LED tailights to the OEM Laser taillights!
Funny story on this as I shared it recently with another member of our sub. My M440i is pre LCI and I had the older style taillights. I absolutely LOVE the OEM laser taillights but they cost anywhere from $3K-$4K 💀!?!
So I opted to go with the CSL style LED versions that look like the laser taillights. I posted last week on our sub about sharing your last pic of your M440i and I got compliments about my aftermarket taillights. I got them from WestCoastEuros (link is in our community info page) just this past November. They cost me about $900. I also love them and they have a startup animation that is badass. BUT, I have always continued to look for the OEM laser taillights on eBay and other websites- I really don’t know why as I was super happy with the CSL style ones I bought. They look premium and are almost spot on and very similar to the OEM.
But just my luck, about a week ago, I found a complete OEM set on eBay from a guy in Europe who imported an M4 from the US with the OEM laser taillights. Because they are the US version and Europe has different taillight requirements, he was looking to sell them for only $1K! I KNOW I lucked out because I really was one of the first to see his post because of the time difference from Europe and Washington state and I just happened to be up super late. I immediately sent an offer and he responded quickly with a counter offer. I couldn’t sleep thinking about those damn lights and I jumped on his offer and we agreed for $900!!! The same exact price I paid for my current aftermarket ones 😱😱😱. The lights he was selling were essentially new, no damage, no scratches or scuffs! He shipped them the same day and I got them pretty quickly and I am extremely happy!
NOTE: The video is of my CSL style LED taillights and the startup sequence I spoke about. If anyone has questions or is interested in my aftermarket ones, DM me on the side 👍.

Help with son’s 328i
Working on son’s car and getting it all cleaned up. Any recommendations on how to refresh the black trim? The Hawai’i sun and heat really did a number to it and makes the car look old. Now in Washington state and the four seasons is aging it more too. Appreciate any insight in advance!

Continuing my 5 min mods to close out the weekend.
Blacked out my side markers. I know there are painted and color matched versions where you can remove these and replace them, but I went with the vinyl wrap instead. Literally, 5 mins lol. I went this method just in case I need to quickly take them off. We’ll see how these hold up.
Here’s a link to my previous 5 min mods:

Remy Vogel- M440i personal build
You don’t see many videos on YouTube or any other platform for that matter where the main focus is the M440i. This guy is a DIY car guy pushing his M440i to around 900WHP. Not to say that’s something I would ever do, but someone on this sub may be interested. He does other mods as well, so if anyone here can benefit from it, I might as well share his channel.
Remember, we’re building a community, let’s continue to support each other- whether or not we share the same vision. It’s all about the M440i!
