angel eyes are fine unless you drive around in the dark with your dipped beam off cos you think you look cool with just the angels on......it doesnt look cool and does look very shit.
wish the cops would get onto this but they are too lazy
also its been done to death and as soon as muppets in saxos and pugs start putting them on you run the risk of being seen as a chav stylee boy racer type......best to distance yourself from them IMHO

hey dont take it the wrong way mate..im not making it personal....you did ask for opinions

i think they are fine as long as you dont use them illiegally and i dislike posers
yeh i am from aberdeen....the city of knobs is to do with the sheer amount of arseholes that i had to deal with on a daily basis....they get a little bit of money from the oil and instantly turn into dicks....its getting worse too

nice car im not against angel eyes think it gives the lights a clean look but yea ppl do go over the top with them and yes must admit ive played with the idea of putting them on my sport but just dont have a spare £150 odd to shell out on them as id rather get the rest of the car fixed first but if i was to get offered a cheap set then yea maybe

X3mcp. I know this car well as it came from Lisburn N.I.
Your doin a good job... keep at it.
By the way, did you sort the loud grinding noise that was drilling from the back end.
Could have been the diff. but its hard to tell?

Sweet ride....
I'd have bought HID's for a good set of Smiley's/smoked Smiley rather than the angels (but that's just my opinion)...
Liking the brakes though

I have purchased the HID kit aswell should be getting installed this week will look good with the Angels, also new grill with black kidneys getting fitted have got eyebrows but not sure if I want to fit it, don't really want to change the look of the front of it
Any opinions????
Cheers for the comments guys will post up more later on when the interior is fitted just waiting for cables to be run through the car before it goes in.

It's still on the ramp haven't had the pleasure in driving it yet will be in the garage for another few months so won't find out as yet.
Does anyone know if manifolds can be coated,and also where can I get different coloured hoses, Iv'e tried Samco but they don't do a kit for the E30
