UPDATE ON MY COUPE! WITH COILS

[dangeris]

Looks nice but I see 2 problems with tinting the headlights.
1 - Tinting reduces the output (lumen) of your HIDs. I'm assuming that you have the 2.5 thus you have halogen projectors and not HID projectors that are standard in the 3.5 with tech pkg...BIG Difference in light output performance!

2 - You're running 8K HIDs which has LESS lumen output of a 5K or 6K

Combine that with tinting your headlight lens = bad karma. Hope you drive your car mostly during the day. I'd hate to be a passenger in your car cruising the town at night...

Well hopefully you didn't just jinx me :s
I just got home actually and didn't have any trouble seeing the streets or any object. But I understand your point though. As for the hids I'm actually gonna get 5000k cause They are brighter.

You'll love it even more dropped for sure. I'm by Watts. I recommend the tsw wheels I have they're sexy as hell

[DReed86]

Your car is looking good bro keep it up!!... Love the wheels!

[nismogxs21]

Thanks bro. Yea the clanking is pretty annoying. I'm learning to live with it cuz I love dropped look. About what u said I don't think we did that. But if that eliminates the noise I'll try it. No matter what I know you're gonna love em

if you do adjust the setting before i put my coils on (when i go bak to fl ina week) then please let me kno if that really does eliminate the clanking...

DANGERIS - do you get that clanking noise with yours???

No problem! Also I've been told to preload the rear. Don't quite know how. But basically I was told to make sure nothing is lose

[LongBeachCoupe]

NICE LOOK!

[2010alticoupe]

Thanks a bunch guys. I'm very proud of my coupe and hopefully she's in the running for cleanest coupe

[alphapig]

That looks great! I love the crimson black, and the wheels look nice

They would really stand out if you got 5mm or even 10mm spacers for the rear, though

As for the BC coil over rattle:
