OK!! RF, How hard of a mod is That for the dash.....Michelle told me to do that at the meet! Havent got to it yet! I hear you need 2 peeps to get that done??

Also, I did the Bimmian Carbon fiber.same as you ....That looks hot!! My prob was after a couple of car washes they came off.....I did do it in the winter though, maybe I'll try again now that it is warm out....better sticking power! LOL!

Either way looks great!

This is true, I started a thread a while back about, what is better the actual mod being on the X or doing the research and leg work and waiting for the FEDEX truck to pull up......I like the waiting part.....LOL!


Actually I am waiting on some solaris reverse bulbs from Bimmian, (Since The Jlevi LED's did not work) (codes)....and I should get my customangeleyes/angelibright HID fogs this week.....That should be a relatively easy install....

Wasn't hard at all.. just a little patience.. I actually did it and should have read the instructions.. if you look REALLY close, you can see some slight bubbling.. but then again.. you shouldnt be that close!!! LOL.

You really don't need 2 people.. just patience. DO NOT remove the needles.. that's the hardest part. If you don't have rings yet, make sure you get the ones that snap in (guaranteed snap in if buying off ebay). I bought some others and the seller told me af ter i got them to the house that i would have to gl ue them or something. threw them out.

Red needles = red marker. The only reason i didn't do the MPG guage is because the marker was so thick it couldnt get to do the entire needle. So maybe get a thin sharpie if you plan to do your needles. They still light up perfect at night. let me know if you need anything.


I think i've decided on 20" 214s reps!! mrbmwx5 convinced me.. I was dead set on the M6 reps until this morning though LOL. If i find some 21" 215s ... that would be perfect. LOL.
