    The whole point of angel eyes (which is a stupid term I believe the correct one according to BMW is corona like the sun in an eclipse) is because they took away the 4 individual headlamps. I've seen them on an e30 and they just look awfully tacky. I'm not shooting you down they just look horrid. Would be better to get some euro grills, and polish the lenses on your elips or smoke them. Will be a much better result.

    I promise.


    Fucking trust me.

      FUCK ALL DA-Haters!

      I like when people do stupid shit IN MY OPINION to their cars, because it makes my car IN MY OPINION Look much better!

      So to help this thread, I will contribute, not just bitch and moan..


      heres mine in my car.

      There are different ways you can do it, LED's, CCFL's...

      You can either smoke or leave your housings chrome.
      Mine are US-ellipsoids, smoked, I don't use my highbeams so F-them, they are smoked, the ellipsoid, reflector is smoked... i searched a lot for the right size of these and found them a couple years ago, I was asked to replicate this for a friend and cannot currently find the right CCFL lights to do this... (that doesnt cost over $100) SO good luck. I also spent a pretty penny doing this as right as I could... Including the headlights, paint, lights, silicone and various other stuff needed. It takes time, you need to heat and remove the housings sand/ paint, seal, drill... Over $250 plus time!!!!

      I offered to do this again for a fee but nobody was ever interested... If you dont feel safe doing it yourself, let me know, if you need more help I can PM you to answers questions to my best ability.

      Here they are at night.. really bright!


      On the car daytime.. still noticeable, but photo not great showing this.

              No ones bitching and moaning. They just look tasteless and out of place.

              I wouldn't take the advice of anyone who starts their rant off with "I like when people do stupid shit to their cars..."

                    you have to buy the whole assembly. Purists around here want brand new e30s from the dealership.

                      Sorry, I guess now I am... trolling, bitchin and moaning

                      I was talking more or less about people posting one liners not helping. Someone asked for help, no one helps just plasters opinions and don't let people form their own opinion.

                      It's hard to show sarcasm on the interwebs, but either way you don't have to take any advice you don't like. Thats the beauty of it!:giggle:
