    I have no idea what brand. They were a B-day gift from an old friend. I think they are Depo or the equiv. APC or FK- basically, they are cheapos, but I only used the lenses, cause the chrome housings were the queerness.

      it might settle a bit more, but no, I cant get it any lower. In the pics, the rear of the car is sitting on a brake test machine though.

        here is the stance of it on the road. too low, but i dont care, I like the slammed look, and i really dont drive it but a few times a year and only on nice smooth roads.

              It isnt against the law at all here in germany to have the yellow lights. There is an old 1960s Alfa romeo in town here that is running classic car plates and has yellow headlights too. They just need to have the (E) symbol. But no, I havent had any trouble at all, but I dont drive the car much, a total of 1000km in the last 5 years about.

              yeah, My rear bumper went on like crap, but I think it is only because the previous owner hacked the heck out of the crossmember/bracket thing. actually, nothing on the car is actually fine alligned yet either.

              here is a pic of what is left of it. I can't figure out why he did it though????????? maybe he thought it was going to make the car faster?

                  Markus' coche is muy muy caliente. And schwarz Sport Evo's too. But for the most part you're right. Mos def an original color for a non-Jager race car.

                  It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.

                            on a side note, will that paint hold up on the VC in the engine bay? prolly flake offa after a lil while no?

                              No .

                              The vast majority of E30 owners with painted valve covers paint them themselves using rattle can paint .
                              This paint used is professional grade eurethane base/clear and should hold up forever .
