NEwbie here

Postby Johnnytsang on Mon Jul 13, 2009 12:29 am

Hi guys finally found myself a good forum so thanks for letting me in... im now on my 2nd e36 this one being a baby 316i compact ( this must be the lowest model ever lol )
anyways i love it and have recently just purchased and fitted
ccfl angel eyes 8k
8000k hid upgrades
smoked side repeaters ( wich i have now broken )
in car dvd with subwoofer
and 15inch bbs alloys

next is painting the alloys black with a silver ring.. smoking back lights.. smoking fog lights.. smoking windows.. and possibly 1.9 140bhp engine change...

since fitting the angel eyes and his i obviously had to take the headlights out and didnt realise the setting screws so now my lights are a wonky and the light output isnt the best as its pointing down... anyone got a picture of a setting i should have these screws at?
thanks

idd gd deal on the taillights :lol:

The wheel ur gonna paint...are those the fitted wheels ?
I mean if you paint your 'stock' wheels black...they will look smaller...look at 17/18" they look small with black hearts..so imagine what it will look like in 15" :roll:

Love your angel eyes :twisted:

thats the wheels there... bbs style
i know they aint the nicest or biggest but i got them for 30 quid with new tyres ( the tyres are the reason igot em ) so the alloys are a bonus.. plus theyv got a decent lip on them so was going to black them out but leave a silver lining. ( same as my old car ) now i know theyl look smaller but hopefully the ring will keep the size up... this was to go with the blacked out sleeper look, though white alloys have crossed my mind.
theres a pic of the car standard aswell. easy how a couple of wee mods make all the difference!!
angels were only 35 quid ! brill
