Donny... I might be taking the wheels off when Im working on each side. It looks much easier to get up and inside that wheel well with that wheel off. I realized this when changing out my fogs...

Might be able to do it right outside my place again. Ill have the euro taillights, rear spoiler and PMB to install. Sounds like another modding weekend coming up sometime soon!!!

yours and donny is on its way....... :rocks:

AJ...have the PMBs arrived? Let me know when and how. Also let me know if you need any specialized equipment I might be able to get my hands on. Do we have space at your place if a few members tag along?

krndanic307,

If you dont mind me asking, what fogs do you have? They look like a good match for the xenons and PMB kit. I have the bimmerxenons, and they havent finished their 'breakin' period yet. Soon though...

shim · 04-12-2006, 02:15 PM

thanks. good deal.

Hey those nokya white fog light bulbs go well with the PMB whites...whats the best site to get them from? Are they reliable? Do they cause any error messages? Are they functional? Thanks...

06330i · 04-12-2006, 03:14 PM

Nope because they're regular hallogen bulbs. They're around 20$ online.

Correct

BiggieJ · 04-12-2006, 03:56 PM

thanks for the pics krndanic307! that just sent me over the edge and i just ordered some PMB in white. now i need to get some nice white fogs like yours

paullo · 04-12-2006, 04:08 PM

Thanks for the pics. This is exactly what I was hoping they'd look like w/ the xenon's running. That, and the Nokya Arctic White Fogs are a sweet combination...

Just waiting on the PMB's to arrive, and then to find the fogs,...

Im going to give it one more week. I am currently enjoying the links in Florida, and will be returning to VA tomorrow. They were very blueish at first, but have started to whiten out. If at the end of next week they are not white, forget it. Ill take them out and stomp on them... :mad:

dude make sure you get pictures. a video would be better.

bavarian19 · 04-12-2006, 04:28 PM

One more question about the nokya arctic white fogs... What style bulbs are they? (what should I look for if I were to order?) When it comes to lights, Im not the most knowledgeable...

I can probably have one more car at my place. If we wanted to have a few more over, Im sure we can go across the street to the elementary school parking lot. Nice and flat with plenty of room...

ryanmangos · 04-12-2006, 04:41 PM

when can i come over and check them out for myself long?? =)

knonenone11 · 04-12-2006, 04:44 PM

yo they look sick bro,

i'm hopefully getting a set of hyperwhites tomorrow.....and i was actually looking at the same nokya fogs you have, the artic whites....but you said they match the white PMBs...

do you think that they will still look good w/ the hyperwhites? and if not what fogs do you think are the closest (after seeing the hyperwhites in person) to the hyperwhite color, i was also thinking about the MTEC's, which are posted on another thread.

thx
