so during the last few months/weeks i've done some mods
m5 spoiler
![]()
3000K H1 hid's
really tough to get teh right color in teh pics....
![]()
this is kinda it, only about 10,000 times brighter
![]()
gotta do something about the color on these rings
and finally,
painted front lower valence
all in all she's coming together
the tcd ceramic coated exhaust manifold is on the shelf in the bedroom,
and the turbonetics t4 ptrim is on its way =]
oh and btw, 3m rubbing compound will fix any problems u might have...
car feels sluggish? buff it w/ rubbing compound...
car doesn't turn in crisply? buff it w/ rubbing compound...
paint is oxidized? buff it w/ rubbing compound...
Not feeling the 3xxxK hids bro.
spoiler looks good but it needs to be sprayed... the whole car that is. Otherwise its good.
I Like the spoiler but the lights I would need to see in person before I say anything as I can't say if I like them or not. I bet with 3000K you can see every pebble in the road, which is a good thing..![]()
get some gold bbs for that matched look...red/yellowOriginally Posted by gota525i
-cookie cutter mods-
painting the front valance/lip made a huge difference. Are you going to paint the sides and rear?

iwas thinking about getting a set of cheap gold wheels to see how they look...
3000K is prolly illegal =]
but they sure would work great in the fog.Originally Posted by bähnstormer
bähnstormer, I think it is looking good.
I love the Angel eyes, and the yellow is different, but that is what makes cars custom, being different.
I REALLY need to paint my front lower valence as well, it is so rock chipped!
E34 540iA Sold 1/06......
I like the angel eyes. A good thing you finally painted the lower valence, so much better.
i like the 3k hid's. niiice! painted bottoms make a world of difference.
are the 3000k hids actually yellow, or are they just showing up funny in the pics... if they are yellow... perhaps they are fog light material![]()

Painted front looks much better. I really need to do that....sides too.
Heres ol' blue eyes with a "black"chin.![]()
