Hey Guys,

I'm in Los Angeles, and wanted to know if any of you from here know of any good places to take my car for modifications.

Specifically, I want to get angel eyes and new rims.

Good places with good prices.

Probably help if you say what kind of design or specific wheels you're interested. We have good vendors here that would be able to help you.

As for angel eyes, budget would help, but first state whether your car is pre-LCI or LCI.

Thanks for the replies! Sorry forgot about my stats.

I have a 2006 525i Don't know what LCI or Pre-LCI means:/

Quite honestly, I just got the idea of modifying, when I told my friend that I want to "love" my car again... so that being said, I don't know what brands are good or what I should expect to pay for rims or other mods.

I am pretty handy with tools, and fixed my old camry myself that I had for 8 years... but I have found that modifying a BMW is a whole other deal...

Very interested in Angel eyes and rims right now... Any advice would be great!


Thanks guys!

Your car is Pre 2008 so it's pre-LCI. LCI = Life Cycle Impulse. It's when BMW facelifted the exterior and interior of the car mid life in 2007 or 2008 (I think). (2004-2010)

Anyway, I'm in LA too but ordered most of my mods mail order and did it myself. As for Angel eyes, if you want a quick route, get angel eyes LEDs from john@motorcepts, trinity autosport. However if you totally want the real bright Angel eyes, get them from Umnitza and have nomis_nehc cut in OC and have him mod your headlights for you. He also does some coding and programing as well.
For wheels, seek Michael (acuteperformance) or Trinity Autosport.

Good places with good prices.
We offer both and ship them for reasonable prices starting as low as $600 shipped for a set of 18s
Angel eyes, Simon in LA does good work, or you can send your lights to us for work, though we are very booked up so it might be a while for us to get to it.

See Joe Yang the owner of Trinity Autosport. Great guy and his prices are very reasonable. In fact I'm doing a bunch of mod work with him on Monday of this week. Angel Eyes, Lowering Car, Smoke Fenders, and new Coil Packs and Spark plugs. Driving in from Vegas to get er done.

Good Luck!

Since you're close, here' what I would recommend. Meet up with members and check out their ride to give you ideas. SInce you're not that far from me, or if you're interested in getting coding done (PM me for list of things to code), you can check out my car and see what I have done with mods and particularly my angel eyes.
