Hey, Thought I recognised those angel eyes! Looks good.

Are the door handles painted or are they the clip on covers?

I like the headlight housing - not sure on the grill though, guna be a bastard for stone chips etc?

Do you have any problems with wear on the handles? How long have you had them on? Mine are flaky as anything as OEM and was thinking of going body color when i get some small paint repairs done.

tbh mate,the grill holds up fine,maybe an extra layer of paint here and there to help make it thicker and stronger,not seen any chips yet,door handles same , perfect still,ive had the car just a year now,and are looking like the day i got it...so not a bit flaky,peely or any paint coing of m8,tbh,i suppose its all down to what kind of job and how much prep you put into it,isnt it...

Liking the look of those angel eyes, the exhaust sounds good - where from and can you specify the tailpipe distance/position?

I'm not keen on the gravelly growl from that exhaust, I prefer the deep base burble you get from a V8, less conspicuous and "hey everyone look at me, I'm loud and proud" !!

That's sealed it for me couldn't make my mind up whether to black out grill and handles but this looks like the snakes Censored , I've got the same chrome side vents and wasn't sure if car would still look OK with all black and one chrome bit but this looks cool. Defo getting that exhaust too.

Is there much involved in taking off air intake to paint?

@ stevie H... the vents and clour coding were all done from the trader i got it from,i specced it when i viewed it,along with the wheels,chrome tubes and chrome vents,i assume all there is to it is,unbolt it,clean and prep well,then spray.as it only took them 2 days from order to delivery...


@ noddy..... the angel eyes were purchased from america for about £140 , including all wires,ballasts,fitting instructions.they are ccfl tube lights,or (cold cathode flouresent) they are better than bmw standard as they are plastic lit up with a small bulb,highly visible in daytime compared to bmw units.the mot test centre yesterday commented on them and passed them with flying colours too,as they are classed as sidelight upgrades to your vehicle,and are better visibly than standard 501 type sidelights as factory spec...they took an hour a piece to fit including removing headlight from vehicle..

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/03+-Range-R...9009r29798 angel eyes,they also do kits for 06 oneards too.. Thumbs Up
