Got these bad boys put on my car. Ill post pics of the car washed up tomorrow.

Image
One low beam on, one low beam off. To show the lighting effect around the headlights



Image
Both low beams on. The inside low beam is also a high beam when I want it to be because it is now a bi-xenon projector



Image
Daytime shot of before I mounted them back in the car




Better pics to come once the car and lights are clean.

Tommy Love did them, I dont remember his name on here. I noticed you had similar lights just a couple days ago when you made a thread. lol. I think I saw those on your car like the day before my own lights were already getting shipped back to me. I like my low beam shroud better than yours though :biggrin: Im sure someone else will quickly buy your headlights though if you do post them up for sale.

Yeahh made mine too, I did notice your low beam shrouds. Its a nice touch that hasnt been done on the M yet. I would like to have the q45 gatlin style projectors but those are pricey and hard to find the smaller one's that fit in the day time running light position. I always wondered what that theme would look like on a black car and yours is living proof now. You should get some wheels now and take some shots further away.

I think its Mr luv. - he's offered to do lights for other members on the forum - trade cores or wait for their own lights to be modded.

Wheels will probably be next year unfortunately :cry: I plan on getting some new ones when I need new tires again. I have a lot of work going in to the car these next couple years. I plan on doing a body kit too, and have always liked the Kenstyle. lol. But now I cant go with that one cause you have already had it and now I find out you already have the same color scheme lights too. I cant be that much of a copy cat haha. Im deciding if I want to get a Seraph, Vlene, or Job Design kit.

I got tired of rooting around in my glovebox with that tiny light that's provided and I hate how people glare in your car when the dome light is on, so I put in an led strip.

Next I'm thinking of doing this with the center cubby. My only issue is how to activate the light. I as thinking of using a mercury switch but that would require me putting it on the lid and then figuring out how to run the wires inconspicuously which I don't want to bother with.

Only draw-back is they are both brand new and not officially available till mid-late March, but I pre-orderd and they will ship to me as soon as they arrive!

I also installed a new dashboard cover I found on Ebay. Not one of those fuzzy carpet ones but a new material I hadn't see before called 'Warp-Knit'. It was a perfect fit with cut-outs for all the sensors, etc. It came with velcro tabs and looks great - no reflections on the inside of the windscreen and it matches the balck dash perfectly !

Got it on Ebay:

I found a few pics from last year. Mind you, my dash does NOT have dandruff - it's beach sand granules from leaving the windows down in the driveway.

Do you put that on for looks, or is it functionality like sun protection?

Actually, both. It looks good and covers the dash to protect it from fading while being breathable so it won't lock heat on the dash and cause it to dry out. And in sunlight, these kind of dash covers don't reflect onto the inside of the windscreen like the naked dash does so you have better visibilty while you drive

Finally figured out how to remove the front lower grille and replaced my fog light lenses with the Sentra fog lenses. What a difference!

Well done, mate ! It's amazing that you can get both lights replaced for less than the cost of just one OEM fog light. I am very pleased with mine as well. And they even came with new bulbs !!! I switched them for 3000k amber, but if you want white bulbs, you're all set.

The link to purchase them is in the post I made about them a while back:

Yes sir, Looking to get Tien H techs. Also, got the 19" Sport Wheels on standby. Waiting for these tires to be done. They have about 3k left in them. Will order new tires for the wheels and I will be set.

Finally got around to to installing new lightbulbs for the low beams.. Holy crap it is not fun for someone w/ big hands. I lost the connector inside the headlight and it took me a while to fish it out.

Also, thanks to the fine guys over at Accuair, i was able to get the touchpad + other maintenance items installed.

Here is where i mounted the touchpad. Sadly the thing wont close buts its stable and solid and out of the way.
