Some Spring Pics w/New Headlights and Little changes (56k warning)
More Pics on Page 2!!
So its finally become nice here in south dakota and i finally had a chance to get some little changes done to my car (along with big ones including new tranny but that's a whole other project to tackle).
So i bought some e46 Bi-xenon projectors back in like February and decided to put them on the 97. I'll take this time to note to never buy from brooklynK3Y, i recieved these headlights trashed and never received compensation from him for the repairs that had to be made..but that's a whole other long story.
Anyways, thanks to Maxgtr2000, he got them back in order again, and i think they look alright.
And the car isn't the cleanest since it rained but i was too lazy to wash it today...

No more fogs? No more black corners?
Either way, everything looks GREAT. CG2 represent

I'm not gonna lie, I know I posted earlier whining about him not having his black corners, but this almost makes me want to dig my orange corners out (from the week I bought the car almost 2 years ago  ) and lightly tint them and see how it looks.

Ha, yeah i decided there wasn't much need for the fog lights with the projectors. But i did experiment with my OBDII Scanner and found out that the Air intake temperature lowered between 5-7 degrees with the fog out so there's a direct flow..pretty cool.
And orange > black = Mad JDM yo..
speaking of that... i had my backseats out and had my car stripped for about a week for the weight reduction haha... it was awesome..

Thanks! Just went went the orange bumper lights for something a little different i guess..i switch off between smoked, clear and orange cause i get bored ha.
But unfortunately the raccoon was already dead, so i didn't even get the satisfaction of killing the bastard! I was looking down and it happened to be laying right in the middle of my lane, when i looked up it was too late even with ksports..ha

Man Ryan so you keep 3 sets of markers just for fun, huh!
Well sorry that you didn't get that chance of killing that bastard racoon. I guess it's better than a deer which could've taken your whole bumber, but anyway it would've been a whole lot better if there wasn't anything laying on the road at all.

Yeah...doesn't everybody  ha.
What does everyone think i should do with the corners. I feel like they don't quite matchup right. I have an extra set of stocks that I might nightshade...maybe that'll look good?
