Default Pics of the bimmers

Well, I had nothing else to do on the weekend besides hand washing and hand waxing the bimmers. I'm glad I don't have to do this every weekend...

What do you think?

Wow, now that is a nice pair of Bmws!! I see you've got a little bit of an HID fetish going on there Where did you mount the ballasts for the HID fogs on your TI? I'm thinking of throwing in some HID fogs when I put my old bumper back on.

I mounted the ballasts right on top of the fog lights attached to the bumper. There is a good space for them. I used double sided heavy duty tape. Make sure to clean the area with alcohol before you do it. It's holding on quite well.

I fell in love with my E46 HIDs so I had to have it for my ti.

Default M3 Lip

It's the OEM M3 lip. I had to do a little bit of modification to it on the ends. I had to cut about an inch on each side to match the end of the bumper. It turned out very good. Half an hour of work and $65 later, I can't complaint.

Thanks for the nice comments guys!

Thanks!!! On top of the fogs would make for a clean, stealthy install; I hate having to mount ballasts where you can see them from the engine bay all the time.

It's perfect; you will not be able to see them at all. The place is so good that not even water gets there after driving the car while is raining. Also, make sure to use silicone (or electrical tape) for the connectors. The connectors come with a rubber thing to cover it but a friend of mine got a little bit of moisture and the fogs were not coming on. After he got them dry, they came on fine.

Good luck!

I don't think I want to do it for living but if you swing by with a six pack I think I can get it done.
