The fenders look OK, but they are certainly not cheap for two pieces of fiberglass. Needless to say, they are worth the money and effort.

I am still waiting for my black shadowline trim to come. It has been 7 weeks now and still no news yet. Maybe they use camels to transport them from the German factory ??
or maybe they ran out of black paint

Hi .. new to the forum I have a 04 525i w/ Halogen headlights, and am interested in xenon ones. So if I get a pair off ebay or something, do u guys know a reliable shop to do the install work for me. Please don't say the dealer, I've asked and they won't do the work unless I buy the parts from them ... and the total cost ... $31000+ HKD!!!!!!!

Also do u guys know any HK shops for other mods ... spoiler ... intake ... etc? any recommendations?

thx in advance
Hi welcome I will pm you.

thanks for the replies ... I can feel the warmth already ... lol. But ur right ... I dont have angel eyes, or xenon (projectors?) Thats why I'm interested in switching a pair (like this on ebay ... (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...3AIT&viewitem=) item number: 230325974955 ... looks like the pair has everything I need? maybe I can get a pair like this and just take it to SingFai?

Any help will be much appreciated ...
Change OEM halogen headlight to third party HID is the most cheapest and best way instead of back to dealer, If you bid this from eBay item and should need to back to dealer or others garage shop which have that BMW computer to reset your vehicle before use.

Are you really sure we haven't angel eyes ?

This auction over 1,000 USD, Third party HID over 1,000 HKD only.
