NZ POM 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2007 (edited) Nice, full ACS kit. Can't see the spoiler properly though. Is it Montreal Blue? Thanks for the welcome & comments guys, yes its Montreal blue. Can anyone tell me are the rear lights and front indicators standard or are they aftermarket ones. its just that the side repeaters are smoked and they look odd against the others. Also not sure about the H/lights,if youlook closely they've got horizontal lines running through them(click on pic for a closer look) One more pic Edited December 3, 2007 by NZPOM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also not sure about the H/lights,if youlook closely they've got horizontal lines running through them(click on pic for a closer look) Have a close look at the rear lights and front indicators, do they have a tiny BMW logo on them? Original side indicators won't have BMW logo but should have the logo of the OEM, will probably be one that looks like an 'S'. Are you sure that the side indicators are smoked, as original BMW clear side indicators look a little smoked compared to the front and rear ones which appear more white. Headlights look to be original. See if they say Bosch on the lower corners of the lights, or ZKW. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NZ POM 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2007 Thanks for the answers, as i said in my intro its my 1st Bmw so im a bit naive. After mucking about with all the switches i'd say the H/lights are OEM as they can tilt up/down by a switch on the dash (cooool) i'm all exicited (luv gadgets) Oh i almost forgot its a 96, One more question is there anywhere in NZ that sells ACS stuff, as i'd like to keep the going by adding a few more mods Thanks again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drifty325i 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2007 ACS gear is pretty darn hard to get mate, trust me i no, and ive had alot of it but not east to get at all. Best bet is trademe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuen 16 Report post Posted December 3, 2007 One more question is there anywhere in NZ that sells ACS stuff, as i'd like to keep the going by adding a few more mods The only thing you probably need for your car for the exterior are ACS mirrors and roof spoiler - yours is already pretty ACS'd out! As Riley said, ACS stuff is hard to get, there's no particular place to source them so you just need to look around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BMW $tealers are the NZ ACS agents Edited December 3, 2007 by Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuen 16 Report post Posted December 3, 2007 I stand corrected. Totally ruled them out because they are usually too expensive but it's worth a try! I think they had a special on some E36 Ti ACS bits last year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
