I still want to do my 12" box. I'm set on using dry ice to break the trunk tar.
I have so much other stuff to do, but will probably hold off.

I think brody can enlighten you on that aspect. I'll let him chime in, since he worked his ass off removing his trunk tar, until he found out how to do it right... with....

I've been reading about the DDM bulbs, but brand new ones are only 25 bucks, so I guess you can't really go wrong on price, plus DDM has good customer service from my past experience, especially if you post on bimmerforums. Shipping is Very SLOOOOWWW

[movementality]

YES! i'll actually be able to make this one!

where exactly is the place everyone's meeting up around here to drive up together? is there an address?

[thereisnoyun]

I bought mine from DDM Tuning. They're $75 (90 with shipping) 6k 55w 9006 bulbs (Hella US Ellips). They are bright as all get out. The place I'm living at in NH is off a gravel road and there are absolutely NO streets lights in this damn town, luckily the HIDS are Brilliant at night, I have no problems whatsoever.

I will say this though, it took me a month to get them from DDM, apparently there was a backorder they forgot to tell me about. Overall I'm happy as can be.

I've looked into them on the forum, it seems some people have had some issue with the bulbs and said they are a hit or a miss. That the DDM bulbs sometimes burn out quickly.

Hey Brody, how did those HID's work out for you and what did you go with? I cannot stand not having HID's, I don't know why. I had them on my e36 and loved them. I saw a group buy on here for $100 or 120. Did you get yours off of the group buy threat?

I've been MIA in the local meets section, but I might try and get out there. No guarantees, but we'll see.

yea there are a couple of places to eat. I think the wawa on 301 would be a good place, it has cheap gas and cheap food. Or the gas station by the home depo and baysox stadium right off of rt50. It has a subway inside and a chic-fil-a next to it. Yun knows the one.
