      Update! Got 'after' pictures.

      The problem with my driver side light was not aiming, but rather the prongs on the low beam were bent, so it was not making a good connection. With it properly installed, both lights are bright, and it is AMAZING! :D Definately lights up my dark neighborhood a lot better. :up:

      3 stock pictures: NOTE, they are really more yellow looking.....and the camera makes them look brighter. They were seriously dim and sometimes dangerous.





      :twisted:



      A view from over the light beams, maybe need to adjust them up now, but dunno.

      Looking into the low beams.

      Pretty far away from a building, but shows how light is spread well, even ~??100feet away maybe. Maybe longer.


      Last two are low beams. For highs, look at page 1, you can see them pretty well even in other light.

        Was it really necessary to post 30 pictures of your front grill from the same angles? :)

          Or 9 pictures on top of that to show lighting. haha. Just kidding man. I probably need to do that to mine because some times night driving is scary due to bad lighting. Good advice.

            your euro grills dont have the cut out cause they are the older model euro grills. The pre plastic bumper ones. car looks good, but I am also wondering what it will look like after a few months and a wash at a pressure wash place. I imagine its not going to hold up too well, but best of luck.

              I'm currently fixing my e30 (1990 325i 2dr) project. The right front fender, grill and hood corner were pushed in from the previous owner letting the car roll forward on a hill into the back of a 4runner. I bought a new hood, fender, and headlight basket, but still need to replace the broken original grill. How much are the euro grills, and where can i get some? If they're not to expensive compared to buying one stock grill, i might update to the euro grills. Also this might sound like a lame question, but how come everyone is against the Kamei eyebrows for the E30's?

                Eyebrows are for ricers.

                Euro Grills = $35 incl. shipping from Greg if I remember correctly.
                You can get replacement grills from me for CHEAP.

                  The euro grilles usually go for $35-$40 shipped and almost all of us have bought them from Greg, M-technik-3 on the board. And the reason we're against the eyebrows... They look bad.

                      Wow, i remember when the eyebrows, and the Schnitzer kit were the mod to have on you're E30 back around 89/90. Is it $35 or $40 for the set or each for the euro grills? I replaced the hood and fender today, and i ordered the replacement headlight bucket from the dealer. Will the elipsoid lights fit in the non elipsoid buckets? Also how can i get in touch with this guy that sells the grills? I need them asap! I'm in california.

                          If you need it fast, I dunno if Greg is in the country now.
                          I'll send the grill you need (or both even, what good is one?) for like $10 plus shipping, eh?

                            How long do you think the grills would take to get from you to me, and how much would shipping be? The guy with the euro grills is out of the country? I guess I'll put whatever in there for right now cause it looks shity without the grills.

                              I could ship them ASAP, and maybe 3-4 day shipping across the nation. Just let me know.
