i first saw a 318ti about a year ago and wanted one ever since. finally sold my car and found the exact one i wanted in California. took a month to ship it to hawaii but finally came the day after my 19th birthday. its been 3 weeks and ive finally got around to taking pics. it was 100% stock, so far i got it tinted, just put on 17" O.Z. ultraleggera rims and changed the fog lights. i have HID Angle eyes, smoked corners and suspension coming in soon. im completely broke but completely happy to have the car ive wanted for over year!   |  |  | | 04-22-2009, 12:42 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: maritimes Posts: 1,433 |

Damn those rims on your car are Hot! I have been thinking about getting my DSII's powder coated black. And now after seeing your rims I think I will be saving some money for it to get done. Keep us posted on the future mods. And welcome to the forum. __________________

you're off to a good start, drop it, black out your grills and lights and it will look sick  | | | | | 04-22-2009, 09:28 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Orange County, NY Posts: 1,067 |

Nice start you've made there, looking good will look even better once lowered.. Need to get mine done too. Although im still using the standard 16" wheels so not too bad just now. | | | | | 04-23-2009, 04:25 PM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Virginia Posts: 242 |

But congrats on the ti, they are really great cars! | | | | | 04-25-2009, 02:56 AM | #12 | | Member Join Date: Mar 2009 Location: Hawaii Posts: 39 |

watch out for those oz wheels, they are made out of a soft alloy, you can bend the **** out of them on the tiniest potholes, they are meant for race tracks, not daily driving. __________________ -Jeff

WOW its amazing what lights and wheels do for a car, they bring it to life! Seriously looks great! Put some thicker tires on those OZs. I had 225/40 on my 18, and went through a monster pot hole . . . long story short, one pot hole+one rim= two bends in different placed. LOL! looks great though | | | | | 04-25-2009, 08:03 PM | #15 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Memphis, Tn Posts: 1,299 |
Looking very nice! I have been wanting to get new lights for so long. but I never have the money and now the wife wants to get a doberman pincher so they cost more than the lights. LOL. I like the fogs a lot. I think I am going to go with yellow on my black ti. Are your grilles still chrome? They look black. Maybe it is just the lighting. Either way your car is looking amazing, keep up with the good work. What are your next mods? __________________
