HIDs who has them, POST PICS

E90 87SS GTP

Ok, there is a ton of discussion about dim headlights over on my other forums . We've come up with sylvania silverstars sealed bulbs, next H4 conversion and finally HID with H4 housing. I also added led fog lights to the monte.

The e90 guys most have adaptive xenons, add lux 5.0 kits for white/blue angel eyes, change running lights to blue ones, and add angel eyes to the fogs with different temp bulbs.

On the GTP I changed the headlight assembly and added silverstars, they are bright but not enough. What have you guys done to improve lighting?

I have HID's in all of my cars:

2001 GTP: 6000K headlights, Fogs

2005 GTO: 8000K headlamps, 3000K fogs

1997 S10: 6000K headlamps
 
Man...I need HID's for the projectors...if only someone made a kit separate from buying a new set of headlights...
 


nice pics on here..especially the 3 gp's in the dark...i would have my hids by now but there were returned from the usps b/c they were undeliverable! arrrghhhh :( but they are on their way now! so pics soon.
 
Those HIDs and fogs look great!!! Whats the harness like and do we need adapters?

Tmack, i wish they were GPs, they are bimmers unfortunately. Was just showing how people keep upgrading their lights.
 


Thanks man, I was thinkin the same thing. I'd really like to start some visual stuff in the spring, but at the same time I want an intercooler and headers :p

yeah i hear you i want a IC myself and im set on visuals for now.....maybe f1 hood and slp gen II one day but i think rockers are next on my list due to my laziness to complete a cam install :th_laugh-lol2:

Lmao. Yeah I know where you're coming from, I think I wanna leave the cam alone, so rockers will do. An F1 hood would be sick, but last time I checked they were like $600. When spring comes my goals for the car by the summer are to tint the windows (35% fronts is gunna be legal finally :th_thumbsup-wink:), get an IC, and some headers.

get headers and rockers first...no sense making a shyt load of boost if the stock valve train can flow it....i boost stack a lil bit on a 3.4 :( ....

we should race btw your car and my car would be close as hell and we have the same tuner haha i think your gearing may screw my day up tho :)

Yeah I'm thinking headers before the IC, as you can probably tell by my lack of real exhaust mods I really need them.
Yeah we should, I might be meeting a guy in Plainfield to trade my old rims for a cell phone next week, if I have my tuning finished by then (knocking like a ***** as of now) I'll hit you up.
