Москвич для шивровки там стоит, да? ![Laughing](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/laughing.gif)
Very nice car, great job on the tail-lights! You should change the AE bulbs to hyper white - not too hard to do, there are many DIYs on the subject on this forum and on umnitza.com, among other sites. Anyway, great-looking ride
go Moscow City

Listen I was going to fit either leds or xenons on the reverse lights but I was convinced that through the paint it aint gona give more light when reversing... Although when I will get the lights polished my people promised me it will give more light through, and I will get the Mr.Cap polishing all my car!

Shifrovki - concealing identity, blending in. But the literal translation is "a coded message"
I take it, you're not a Moscow native? Its ok - I'm pretty sure that there are NO Moscow natives anymore anyway hahaha
I was talking about the Angel Eyes (AE) - I think on a darker car you really almost have to go with a whiter color AEs to make the modded look appear finished. Here's one thread:

Edit:
Angel eyes should stay OEM "gold" not those chinese looking white ones imo

Interior is black & grey like individual, looks just awesome!

I don't know, those OEM AEs aren't my cup of tea... you might come over on the other side on this - just give it time
