My Euro Xenons are in!

tl_boy · 07-22-2006, 12:10 AM

Hey guys, I'm so excited, I will be going from Halogen to Euro Xenon's. I'll need Hunter and AW330i's help tho!

I got them today, and took some pictures, which i posted below. Wish me luck on the install!

forgive my newbness........what's the advantage of these? Just looks?

tl_boy · 07-22-2006, 12:19 AM

Look dramatically better (imo), and since I'm actually doing a retrofit, I'm getting a change from halogen lighting format to xenon... much brighter and more visibility for me.

1st?

just kiddin

tl_boy · 07-22-2006, 12:25 AM

Which one do you prefer now

froman · 07-22-2006, 12:26 AM

Sweet. Where'd you find them, and how much $$, if you don't mind me asking. Euro Xenons are the first mod I have planned after I buy my wife her Mini Cooper S convertible, which is on the boat right now!

tl_boy · 07-22-2006, 12:26 AM

i don't like the black line in the middle of the front bumper, can that be removed?

foofighter · 07-22-2006, 01:12 AM

so you bought UK euro lights based on the stickers all over the lens telling you to adjust to LHD. Just take a look inside, there should be a flipper tab that flips the cut off so you dont glare drivers.

That piece looks like something for the headlight washer

ADHD · 07-22-2006, 01:27 AM

Id go with the 2nd pic of the front end!! Hartage lip is the best man!
Nice euro's dude! That piece is for the headlight washer system! Not sure if u need it or not!

Pretender · 07-22-2006, 01:36 AM

As I said before, the Breyton body kit is out of picture. It depends on how you want your car look: aggressive or just little conservative. Hartge lip is a little conservative and can be combined with other kits like M-sport, OEM, OEM CF or Kerscher, while the ACS has to go with the full kit to make it look hot.

Are you talking about the horizontal fins (or "rockets" as some refer to them as) on your grille inserts? If so, they can be removed, but then the grille inserts, which have a flat/non-mesh base to attach these to will look funny. Some front bumper cover designs simply have full mesh grille inserts without these.
