That would leave me some more money in my pocket for Euro headlights... muahaha And "FTW" will probably become my new fav internet slang.

As for the fog delete covers, I think they look great on the E36 M bumper, but on the regular bumper they just look cheap. | | | 04-29-2006, 11:11 PM | #20 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2005 Location: CG68 Posts: 280 | I have that bumper I really didn't intend to derail this thread.

I remove the driver side one though, cause my CAI sits RIGHT there and i get the BEST airflow that way.

I was never really happy with the old bumper either, but i paid for it, so I made myself leave it on for a couple of years to at least get some use out of it. I like the look of the regular side skirts more than the twistys believe it or not.

They have leaked, I had some melting issues with the inner reflector and some other problems. I bought them over 4 years ago, so Djauto's manufacturing standards may have improved, but I dont know if I would give them a second chance. I would always suggest going with a set of ZKWs if you can come up with the funds. Quote: Originally Posted by KetteringTi I have that bumper I really didn't intend to derail this thread. Sorry!

Quote: Originally Posted by rendoll911 your front indicators look smoked.. how'd you get those? i want! | I bought them from some online ricer shop called Autodynamic.com Here's the link to the lights: http://66.252.233.14/detail.asp?PRODUCT_ID=B39298-4-C-S They are manufactured by Depo. __________________ | | | 04-30-2006, 07:37 PM | #28 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Vancouver, B.C.

And yes, black is definitely FTW!!! Maintaining it is FTL though..... Quote: Originally Posted by colin26 Black does add extra horsepower! | Really!?!?! Cuz I heard that "318ti.org" stickers have the same effect! Quote: Originally Posted by snwbrdrbum10 How much did it cost to get the rear hatch painted? | It was an insurance claim; my car was keyed along the entire driver side of the car. But I would guess around $350-$400 Canadian ($315-$360 USD) or so. It varies a lot on what shop you choose though. Plus things tend to be cheaper in the U.S. than in B.C. Canada. We pay out the ass here on taxes. Again, thanks for all the comments guys! __________________ | | | 04-30-2006, 08:22 PM | #29 | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 | Quote: Originally Posted by m-technik_ti Solid......Not vented, not cross-drilled, just a solid piece of metal. | oh my ... you better get those upgraded then __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles current mods: bilstein sports, bavauto springs, e30 m3 LCABs, solid metal ball joints, bavauto RSMs w/reinforcements, e30 3.73 LSD & halfshafts, supersprint cat-back exhaust, turner rear sway bar reinforcements, IE poly subframe & RTABs + camber/toe kits, powdercoated e36 32x front calipers, sport mirrors, H&R 28mmF/19mmR sway bars, x-brace, auto solutions SSK w/poly bushing upgrade, BMW CD43 head unit, DICE HD Radio w/iPod integration and "stealth" HD antenna, staggered style 68s, orange electronic TPMS, leather arm rest, JT Designs metal undertray acquired and awaiting install: heated seat kit, cali top switch relo, lumbar support kit, park distance control kit, heated washer nozzle kit, m-coupe rear subframe, trailing arms, differential, and halfshafts, m-coupe front/rear brakes with master cylinder, under hood light kit, mud flaps, rear sun blind, auto-dimming rear view mirror, tilt steering wheel retrofit, apexcone 5000K HIDs with 55W ballasts 2002 X5 4.4 Sport Package, 53.5k miles Current Mods: e46 m3 steering wheel | | | 04-30-2006, 09:18 PM | #30 | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: Potomac, Maryland Posts: 230 | looks pretty sweet dude, i like it alot. black on black works with what you did to it. its alittle too low for me though, but im 6'4'', so thats just me | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
