I'm thinking of converting to single lamps, how simple is this? are the twin lights part of a unit? are golf headlights similar?

Cheers!

Mike.

someone was discusing this recently so you might find it on the search function.i cant remember the outcome.golf lights were discussed though.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 5:43 pm**

Okay, didn't search...

cheers!

Edit;

I've searched and didn't find anything!

i considered this a while back as i havnt seen it done b4, however after a play on photoshop i decided it would look rubbish so didnt bother.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 6:02 pm**

do you still have the photoshop pics?

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 6:06 pm**

Corrado/Jetta lights might work if round ones don't

jk

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 6:21 pm**

haha, my mate has corrado lights in his golf. wouldn't look right on an E30.

This is not a photoshop this is a real car in germany.

I think Mk2 Polo lights are the correct size and have both dim/dip bulbs. not 100% sure though.....

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 8:16 pm**

Its the modding of the grill that the hardest part.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 10:33 pm**

I was planning on taking the grill out all together and having single yellow lamps, but after that pic I am unsure...

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 11:31 pm**

not a fan of the single lights on a e30, just don't look right i think

here's another, one of mine that i chopped

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 11:32 pm**

I'm glad i've seen pics before I tried it, I dont like it at all!

edit; your avatar is stunning!

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 11:37 pm**

And yellow hmmm not for me

If you have any ideas that you want photochopped to your car, give me a pm

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 11:40 pm**

It's going to be matt black soon with no grille, the yellow doesnt look right on a smart one, needs to be more ratty!

this is mine as it is;

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 11:44 pm**

lol nice, give me a few more pics some ideas of what your going to do and i'll give you a few previews

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2007 11:45 pm**

its a very weird look for the E30!

Posted: **Mon Mar 12, 2007 5:31 pm**

It is!

I would like it matt black, slammed with a wider track, and single lamps with no grill on the front, plus yellow headlights, and a ridiculous sunstrip!

A tall order i know, but it would be stunning to see what it would look like.

Heres some pics;

Cheers!!

Mike.

i think it wil look really good mate, nice to see somebody else who knows that alpina wheels do unbolt!!!

Posted: **Mon Mar 12, 2007 7:54 pm**

hehe

Posted: **Mon Mar 12, 2007 11:17 pm**

wider track = i.e pumped out wheels, i.e like spacers
and
what in place of the grill, can't just be nothing, slates all the way across? mesh? mdf lol?

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 12:08 am**

I'm thinking of having 25mm spacers all round, and i was gonna have nothing on the front, i understand you can't do that on photoshop!

just leave it black around it!

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 12:50 am**

This going to be a trackcar

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 1:31 am**

dont like the idea of single round lights looks strange and out of place

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 1:47 am**

from the pic i'm thinking golf and mk1 escort, if done tho the real life version wouldn't i don't think.

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 12:52 pm**

Has anyone made it so the grill go across the high beam lamp? can some1 photoshop it?

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 1:10 pm**

That single light picture makes me think of this smilie....

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 1:20 pm**

i like that photoshopped black one. looks mean

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 1:34 pm**

Just did a photoshop of a single lamp and grill over lamp...

Dont like the grill over lamp though

Posted: **Tue Mar 13, 2007 3:31 pm**

always liked the dodge charger, you'd have to seat the lights back abit further and make some technicle arm things but to have grill that covered the lot mmmm

I'm sorry, but that looks like a photoshopped car to me... quite a blatant one too.

Check the duplicated areas...

You might be right but it might be duplicated because the took two grills and plastic welded them together and only the bit for the right side fit the contours of the right side properly, and only the bit from the left side fit the contours of the left. If you know what I mean?
