Well....took some rocks at highway speed the other week. Damage to the paint etc...but one rock went thru the AC condensor and one thru a headlamp. SOOOOOooo....
$300.00 later and I had the A/C back up and running. Now for the lights...
$90.00 Ebay deal of a lifetime...all new, never installed. The new TYC projectors are pretty nice. GREAT fit and equally or better in brightness.

sweet man, im looking into projector lights too with a black housing. How did installation go?

 

Not bad...remove bumper..4 small bolts on each lamp assembly..and reverse. I think it took longer to re-aim the new lamps then to actually switch them out. I also took the time to clean up all the dirt back in the nooks and crannies.

 

nice headlites dogmeat they look killer

 

looks really good..the new headlights look so nice, thats to bad about the rocks tho..i would of FLIPPED!!

 

i was gonna get the black tyc's but have just decided to get stock clear lights and all amber(orange) corner markers for that jdm look... look relaly good though, you ever gonna convert them to halogen?

As a daily driver getting ~2600 miles a month now, you kind of expect some....It just sucked cause it took out the A/C condensor too. 95 degrees means yes I HAVE to have it. LOL This is the second time...the first rock shower took the windsheild.
I think since I've owned the car I have maybe 26K miles...and I've owned for 11 months now...
I think they are halogens...do you mean HID?? Probably not. Not worth it for what I do.

 

yes h.i.d, i wonder if you cab convert stock eg headlights to h.i.d.'s i would really like to do that..if i could find a kit

 

I've seen people do conversions with BMW parts, but....might as well buy a premade (and aimed) set and avoid the trouble.
