    Finally got some pics of the car

    So I finally went out today and took some pics of the ride. Just a few weeks ago I put on H&R race springs, Bilstein sports, Sparco front strut bar, and a TMS strut rebuild kit. Got an Mtech1 steering wheel as well. Parts layin around that need to be put on; ES front lip, smoked Hella Euro smileys (just in today) and a Z3 shifter. Car still needs paint which I hope to get after X-mas.

            you should tuck the bumpers and paint them body color. a guy with the username BLUNT did that on a red car and it looks great.

                  Nice, can you tell me more about those Hella lights ? How much, what bulbs, are they direct drop in etc ? I have been trying to figure out what to do with my sealed beams and if this is a direct fit and makes a big difference I might go this route too :)

                      Looks like you are off to a good start!

                      Smoked Hella lights will look beautiful with the bronzit! As well as a huge lighting upgrade!!

                      Where did you pick up the strut bar from?

                        the Hellas are not a direct fit. You have to get the housings/adjusters from US projectors and take the lenses out of them. the low beams will use the same stock bulb but the high beams are I believe an H1. I got the Sparco bar from Bimmerworld and I think it was $129.

                          That's a huge improvement over stock.
