yep paint on the bonnet is fooked, losts it shine on the corner ( look in the 2nd pic at the reflection of the tree to see what i mean) also got a little dent on the rear arch. not bothered tho as im getting the whole car resprayed later in the year:D
thought id get a few pics of my efforts at polishing and waxing the hybid today, tried the meguiars 3 stage deep crystal stuff and gave good results imo. was very shocked at how much s**t came off when i used the 1st paint cleaner even tho it had just been washed and looked clean to my eyes...
nice mate, seen both cars in billericay, like your old one, had a gtt lump in in did'nt it, sounded very nice, saw u on the highstreet once. saw your new one parked outside its old home and woundered if it was a turbo as it had a side exit exh, seems like it is:D , how much did u pay for it??
you just have to order the lights that fit your car, then plug them in, easy stuff, done it twice now and on the angel eyes i had to file the light housing a little to make them fit, nothing major tho... if you are doing this on a mk2 u may wanna speak to someone called Has on here, think he's...
to me they seem a little brighter than the 8000k bulbs i had in the angel eyes, maybe because they had projector lamps in?? as you know full beam is now w**k compaired to the hids, but i never hardly use full beam so its not a problem, probably just use fullbeam to flash people now.
cost for the kit is £160 inc vat and del ( just ordered a set for a friend yesterday) got it from www.hid-lights.com went for the x5 kit, got 9000k lights on now but ive got photos with 8000k bulbs from before if you wanna see what they look like. i word of warning, ive heard that the x5 packs...
a few may remember i did this conversion on my old hybrid last year but that was on angel eyes and they got smashed to f**k when i crashed it. the packs were still ok so i decided to get some h4 lights and do it on standard lights, ordered 8000k but was out of stock so got 9000k hid bulbs which...
couple of pics here from when i first fitted them to mk1 angel eyes http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=105700, just waiting for my h4 bulbs to arrive and will be fitting them on std headlights.. never had a problems with the packs but will always keep an eye on them...
ive had the conversion done on 2 valvers and they were but plug and play. got to agree with the valver manifold being s**t on the 2.0l, reckon mines not up to scratch with it on, seems to be down on torque with it on so went and bought i of these this week...
