My quest to go lower

[Isuzupickup]

This is a beautiful car that I don't recall seeing up until now. You were my first

[l3xxd]

Finally got your banner! I didn't think I was going to like the gold calipers at first but it looks really good behind the wheel color. MOAR!

Thank you sir

Haha yeah they're kinda hard to find here either.

Figured the gold calipers gonna look better than purple since its kinda disappears behind the wheel color. I **** my drums -.-

Score!



I've got 2 pairs of E34 lights for real cheap Pictured is just the low beams which i just done cleaning.

I've been wanting them for sooo long omg im so excited haha!

OMG yes I know I need better coilovers since this cheap pos coilovers are blown and I'm bouncing like mad at the moment. And the worst part of all, I'm not even THAT low >< I used to be about 1/2" lower before and the bounce is unbearable >< That and I would have a mad rake going on if I go any lower up front since I can't lower the rear without a major body reconstructing lol. My rear tires rub on the inside of the wheel wells ahaha.

I'm not sure with going with smaller tires as my wheel arches are huge even as it is. Its 15" right now and I wonder if going with 16" wheels would make it look too big? Idk can't decide grrr

I know the tires are too fat right now (N) They're 195-50-15 btw

Win for the E34 headlights.

Indeed (Y) Been waiting for them for YEARS!

Winnn. Now, get those bitches on faster

Its on bitch!

So yeah I was being me, with buying things that I'm not even sure they would fit while trying to get them to fit. Little did I know theres a LOT of modding required to fit the headlights.

I'm still not happy with the way its installed right now. I'm having a trouble trying to put the connector/boot thinggy on. I'll figure that out soon I guess. Oh and I gotta repaint my bay since I sorta... hacked the old headlight holes to death

LOL what have I done here ><


Cleaned up real good


Test fit


Duh that doesn't work


Stock BMW tabs shaved off


Stock 1g headlight bucket cut




It fits. kinda.






Obviously the projector doesn't fit lol


Oh yay!


IT FITS!!




lol hax


Cutout line


Done. kinda.




Done. for now. I still gotta do some finishing touch(es) but that will do for today >< Took me 9 hours straight to get them done lol!






Now debating if I should smoke them or leave them as it is?

[theseeker411]

Leave 'em man, looks awesome!

[l3xxd]

Seriously these even look better than I already thought they would! I'd have to agree, leave 'em as is!

[ullyeus]

I figured the all black look up front would be.. idk? too much black?

Now I probably would get flamed for this but thoughts on........ pnp HIDs? I made some research on the interweb and apparently the cutoff is perfect even for pnp HID kits so I won't blind everybody on the road except the beam isn't wide enough. Hey its a 80s technology LOL

But they sure put out a lot of (good) usable lights on the road at least from the pics. Anybody with these or E30 ellipsoid projector housings can comment on this? Worth the effort?
