Drea//Mer 30 Report post Posted October 3, 2007 Hey thought i'd share a few pics for once... Bought it in june and replaced the lights, lowered on b+g superlow springs Dunno if i like the taillights... might change them in future. On my todo list is a full 35% tint job, paint job (colour matched or complete respray), 18" mags and an mtech kit Photos were taken from my phone camera so the quality isnt that great Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo 35 Report post Posted October 4, 2007 (edited) ^^^^ he means motorsport clears, not altezza clears. Altezza clears look cheap on a bimmer. They look least offensive on white, black and dolphin grey, and worst on blue, green and unfortunately maroon. Nice ride height though, the front corner clears are alright and angel eyes are wicked. Good stuff - rims next? Edited October 4, 2007 by bravo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drea//Mer 30 Report post Posted March 18, 2008 i agree, its at a good height. I already have issues with speed bumps, i will install either front splitters or a lip which will make it look a lil more slammed at the front Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greenday-rulz21 6 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 Really interested in doing the Angel eyes myself. Did you do your own or did you get someone else to? cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drea//Mer 30 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 Really interested in doing the Angel eyes myself. Did you do your own or did you get someone else to? cheers i installed myself. not too much of a hassle, you just have to take your lights out, open them up (4 clips i think) cut the lenses out, glue the rings in and then reseal the lenses with silicone.

I'm more concerned about the wiring, is it that hard? Edited June 5, 2008 by Nick021 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuen 16 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 Nick the wiring should be just a splicing exercise - I'd say removing the lights and gluing would be harder! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3 SERIES 93 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 Starting to take shape mate. Looking good. IMO, loose the rear lights, even if it means going back to the originals. They still look better. Also get that kit and mirrors painted asap and it'll look the bee knees. Where did you get the msport kit from? and how much did you pay for it?

Really hard to understand, but i'll give it a go sometime. Maybe better instructions come with the package? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Really hard to understand, but i'll give it a go sometime. Maybe better instructions come with the package? Lol i had the same issues with wiring... looked everywhere for a comprehensive guide and found nothing... it is really simple though... the kit i got came with a wiring harness, one wire goes to your + battery terminal, another goes to ground, then the balasts plug into the harness and theres a final + wire that is used as a signal on wire. Splice the signal wire on to your park lights then snip the wires to the park lights and the angel eyes will replace your park lights. Sounds confusing but it really isnt. pm me if you need help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
