Before... disgustingly stock, and the fogs were not even wired up when I bought the car, they were just there for show.

now with smoked corners, side repeaters, and rear turn/reversing lights.

And for superior lighting.. ZKWs with eagle industries 6000k HIDs

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v320/mad-machine/Tiiu/716.07009.jpg

And for shits and giggles.. a project that took up too much money:

Ebay Clear fogs+Hella Micro DE fogs+ HIDs=Projector HID fogs.

I havent uploaded many pictures of my car on here, well maybe a few. But ive never done night pics. I have euro Hella smilies with Osram Silverstars, yesterday my friends dad helped me wire up my city lights. Ive had the lights for over a year but never had the city lights wired. Also, my friend gave me his ZKW french fogs! The cool thing about them is that the glass is clear, but the reflector is yellow, so there is no loss of light output. Heres the pics!

Hey habbie, how much would this exact set-up cost me not including fogs?

My dad bought me some kind of cheap generic ebay angel eyes and i'm in need of an upgrade, but can't decide what route to go. I also love the look of Kpip's set-up. Any help is appreciated:)

I can't provide much insight but I think kpip did some kind of e46 swap. Sorry I can't be of more help. But maybe search for kpip and send her (him?) a pm.

Yeah, he did. I still can't decide what to buy.

Sorry for being off-topic, I'll try and get pics of my ebay headlights and other goodies up soon.

So thtese Osram Silverstars...are they HID's? You've got some pretty damn good lighting if they aren't.

nope, they are halogen. they are the best non-hid bulb you can get. But, its not enough light anymore and i want more! I should upgrade to HID soon, it would be awsome to have HIDs in an E30.
