Spring sneek peek

UBER ///M3 · 02-20-2014, 01:40 PM

So I've been gone a little while due to deployment, but got back a month ago and been working on the car I tried to take pics of them lit, but they wern't coming out clear bc the rings are too bright so sorry about that. If you've seen them in person you know what im talking about. First up was the headlights so heres the finished product after a DIY project I tackled. Next to install are my Recaro pole positions, Challenge diffuser, KW Clubsport 2 ways, and painted Hamann carbon fiber hood. I'll post pics once I'm done bc I'm waiting on parts, but here are the lights and what i did and enjoy:

ONEighty rings
Clear projector lens upgrade (clear instead of frosted)
Full blackout (blue stripes on outer shroud) with projector color black
LED turn signal
LED cornering lights

Thanks buddy making me blush// ill keep everyone updated...its together now, hood will be on next week and ill update new pics then

W/// · 02-21-2014, 05:49 PM

That looks excellent man. I've seen people try to DIY and it had turned out OK at best. If I could find a spare set of headlights, I might try it out. A little too chicken to try it out on my original ones.

Can't wait to see the front end back together.

Irishace · 02-21-2014, 06:06 PM

Looks awesome, picked up some gloss black arc 8s as well! Stoked!

BobS · 02-21-2014, 06:07 PM

What are the specs of the apex and tire brand/sizes? I love the meaty look of those apex 18's!

No reason to be scared....headlights are headlights across the board..same components..once you open them you'll know what I'm talking about...no joke anyone can do this its so easy...check the DIY and just give yourself a few days man

Can't wait to see the front end back together.

yes its all together as of today, my new hood was just painted today so I'm waiting to put that on first before I post pics
