smlieys! for now they are super-ghetto-wired, but i'm going to get an HID kit in that bitch.

Your lights came from the UK, have you fixed them yet?

[mkcman17]

NOOO!!! grrr i've been so busy recently..i think i'll be trading for H1 hid bulbs this week though, then i can start the conversion. most likely it's going to be postponed to break though.

i still havnt put my HID's in. Im going to have to drill the housing where the bulb goes in. ( bulbs slightly to big to fit )

Got some 6k 55w just waiting lol. I need a drill and some time to clean it all. Been running my High beam bulbs in my lows ( 100w yellow's ) lol

Oh but ive ajusted them properly, just the yellow isnt bright enuf for me anymore.

The cut off is great but just the lack of brightness. I do love the yellow look lol. get alot of looks from everyone and even cops haha

flubbed out and bought some ebay headers. when i found out they're a pain in the ass and hacked up my stock piping, i decided to go full exhaust. thanks to chris castro for hooking me up, i now have a header-back 2.5" custom exhaust. sounds beefy as hell and very little rasp.

Any better pictures of the E46 M3?

i have been neglecting my build thread...

since my last post i have done a few things.

55w 6k hids with installed euro smileys. cutoff is amazing.
new spark plug wires; was experiencing an arc on cyl 6
new shifter bushings, complete job. what a pain it the ass.
new center support bearing. mine wasn't shot, but the new one took out the slight wobble under acceleration on the fwy.
new battery, replaced mine but found out that the issue was a short. oh well. $$$
new icv boot - cleared up hesitation in the mid-range.
city lights spliced - accidentally bought color-changing bulbs for that true ricer look.
o2 wires successfully extended to new exhaust bung.

coming soon: new front seats. *hush*

i'll get pics up eventually.
