Both were taken with full flash.
I like them a lot. a bit more sporty imo.
It's raining, and my garage isn't big enough so there was no room for me to take whole front side pic. I'll take some soon and perhaps make a profile thread if i don't get too lazy. :D
i'm considering painting the black housing white to match the car color (like ilan did) this coming spring or summer.
what do you think??

If you painted them white that would look really good. I've seen silver and blue done, but never white, good luck.

looks great. now you should go get some clear side markers.

Thanks guys.

Super.. heh. well when i DO paint it.. i'll make sure to take many pictures.

GTS.. yes I am definitely planning to get one soon. but i'm kinda eyeing some performance mods and need $$$ so we'll see.

^^^^^^
Yeah, I would definitely like to see what white would look like. Right now I can't figure if i want to do white or chrome.

Clear signal lights look good. Are they as bright as the headlights? I have chrome signal bulbs which give the appearance of clear but they still are orange when on.

mmm

jlivan.. sorry i forgot.. they LOOK clear but still light up amber.. "chrome-amber" bulb as some ppl call it. i probably should've mentioned that. I didn't want any trouble with cops especially since most of them are dick about such little things like that around here.
as far as light housing goes, I was considering KDM chrome ones but i just love how ilan's lights, so this summer when i'm not in school and won't use car much.. i'll paint it white.

Awesome look on there....
Where did you get them and were they very hard to install?
what was cost like? Lemme know..PM me anytime

Thanks,

not at all. Just as easy as pulling headlight assembly out (3 bolts and 2 connectors on each side) and just changing a light bulb. If you have every changed a light bulb, you can do this.
These bulbs are 1157 "silver-chrome" bulbs from www.autolumination.com (i think it's also called superlumination.com ) . Be careful when you order though, 1157 is for front turn signals and 1156 is for rear turn signals. I did both so didn't really matter to me.

In fact, it's near the bottom of this page (http://autolumination.com/1156_1157.htm) one with before and after pics of a bmw. you can't really miss it.
