I have meet a person here on the forums named Simon (nomis_nech). I talked to him about installing Orion's on my e60. He has a new 'technique' on how to help the AE to be very uniform. All I have to say is I am pretty impressed. I have not posted any pictures of my car yet on the forums but here is a start. As I do more mods more pictures will come. I plan on doing a few more mods on the car. This weekend I am going to be taking off my Wheels and painting the brake calipers red with Dupicolor. I will be sure to post pics of it when I am done. If you guys are looking into Orion AE I would not hesitate. Simon is a phenomenal at what he does.
BTW he coded my car as well.

The lights were 250 from umnitza, I grabbed the new projector lenses that Simon reccomended 40 plus the labor.talk to Simon about the labor. He did a lot of things for me. Not sure how he broke it down. Best mod so far. I do love my may aglow cat back exhaust as well. Painting calipers this weekend and I am probably painting roof next week (black).

Yes, I have found out I am allergic to cats. I will be disapointed that Simon is a 2 hour drive away next time I need somehing. But pleased there is a safe distance between me and his cats.
