bimmer boy

I got one at my brothers, its a little bit f**ked though, the material bit isnt there anymore and the doorpocket vinyl is comming away a bit.

I will deffinatly look for seals or at least obtain some, nothing worse than water getting in the car.... We'll except for maybe having a dead hooker in the car but thats a different story...

Its not a cheap upgrade no, but Im also not stupid. I can do my homework I have since found a few decent kits with ballasts etc. Just seeing my options. I mean if the after market ones that were a mere Celis-style looked any good in person then it could be an okay alternative until something else came along. Cheers for the help though man

Dude, are you nuts? They are so sweet, so rare and no one has them, everyone has black and stuff. Red would look so good. Buy them its an order. Another bonus is they are sport seats, even better

This makes me want to vomit. Hmm I might have to get OEM parts then or I will have a look at someones aftermarket items in person.... Allan what about the orange headlights ? still got those?

You must plug in headphones and close your eyes.

At least you wont have to deal with him and his bodyguard. The one with the screws everywhere?

Awesome car, looks tidy as. Awesome colour.. Same colour as my E39 I know im not the only one that thought this when I saw the thread title.....

Is this for my old car?

Yeah Ian I think thats the one, nice and cheap, how long did it take to get it shipped to you? they seem like the better alternative to get things shipped over cos I have noticed wheels and stuff are cheaper in the states also...

I will be converting from standard bulb taillights to CELIS but as far as I am aware the only LED part is the 3 stripes on each tail light correct? Nick where did you get your Dads ones? or do you at least know where I can get ballasts from. Im probably going to be usuing after market ones. I have been looking at these ones.. Here And for those actually interested in the actual reason for this thread, I managed to get in contact with a sweet NZ owned shipping place in Carson City, CA. They can ship me my bumpers for $100 US.

The best part of this thread is the look on your face. Nah but really looks like a cool as project man, the paint looks half decenish for its age, it would be a lot of fun polishing it up and getting the bitch to shine again. Let me know if you need some polishing tips.. but maybe tend to those spiders first...

Cheers fellas, Only Im not after Angel Eyes... after some bumpers insted. Yeah Josh Im one step ahead mate, I rang for a quote $800 US minumum for air frieght or $600 US for shipping, via, well a ship. I am aware they are located in the CA area. I have a address in Los Angeles I could get them sent to, then work out something cheaper from there but it would be much better if I dont have to go through with all that hassle. Perhaps a trip to the dealership is order. On a side note, does anyone have any experience with aftermarket CELIS lights?

So I'm looking at getting a few bits and pieces for my car and have been looking on Umnitza's website which can be found here ... www.umnitza.com What I was wondering was if anyone else on here has delt with them before? The prices of thier stuff seems really good but kinda thinking Im probably going to raped when it comes to shipping, especially for larger/ heavier item... So if anyone has any feedback or have delt with them before let me know! Cheers

Welcome aboard mate, good to have more people who spend ages on photoshop also haha

Z8 on Friday night in Ponsonby. Silver with the top down and the plate BMW Z8

Cheers dude, I have already begun work on my new car, paint is looking pretty damn tidy now, sore arms however. I will take a few pictures.. What Autoglym stuff are you using?
