I'm not a fan at all of the burnt blue titanium tips (yes, I know I'm probably in the minority) but I think it looks especially bad on that BMW. It just seems out of place on anything other than a Japanese car IMO.

+1 I think they look like you're trying to hard to force the issue with the burnt blue tips, IMO regular chrome tips look cleaner.

I really dislike the burnt blue tips as well, looks kind of ricey IMO. OEM chrome tips or any aftermarket tips like that are super clean and classy.
