    Cool Ordered some stuff for my car!

    Yeppers, Just ordered front euro turn signals, clear running lights and diamond cut h4 conversion kit (yeah I know the cheap ones...).... Everything should be here in the next week or so... as soon as I get them I'll take Pics

    On an also high note... I just got a promotion and that means more money to spend on my car! I live 2000 feet from a bodyshop, I might stop by there tommorrow or friday (thursday is payday, gots to go to bank/store/whatever I need to do)

    Re: Cool Ordered some stuff for my car!

    as in what you have on your car.... the side marker lights I guess you could call them.... The only thing I'm worried about is if it is going to all match the rest of the car since my car is stock burgandy.... I was thinkink of tinting the side marker lights, not all of it but some part of it.... The next on my list (and I know this is an issue on this board) is the (Fake) Alteeza Tail lights that are half red half white, but I haven't made up my mind at this moment.... that will be about 2 or 3 months for those... then on to suspension... and then who knows?

    i think everyone liked those tails, unfortunately they dont make center pieces like that, so it wudnt match. as for the clears, they match pretty much anything but white i think. just wait till u get them. their corner lights btw

    actually I've been thinking about it now for a couple of days and i think I'm just going to "smoke" the tails and corner lights... procarparts.com screwed up and sold me the clear turn signal lights that were discontinoid... said that they haven't had those for months.... so they said that they would send me a pair that are more expansive but said I don't have to pay extra since they don't want a negative feedback on eBay.... Their loss, my gain...

    ah, procarparts.com eh? are you going to use those blue bulbs? the ones that came with my headlights were horribly dim. even thought they are like 100watt ones. show us some pix with the stuff installed.

    why did you order some clear bumper lights when you can just make your stock ones clear by removing the orange reflector thing???

    Re: Cool Ordered some stuff for my car!

    Ok... just got done putting my headlights and corner lights in my car in the rain.... all I got to say is: The lights aren't even that bright... My high beams look like low beams and my low beams look like flashlights.... I think I'm going to take out the reflector that covers the light... On a sad note I can't use the red bulbs they gave me for the corner lights cause they are indeed red... Can't use them in my state for any front light, all lights have to be amber or white (or blueish white or purpleish white...) Say la vie

    I'll take pix when it's not raining and post em...

    Re: Cool Ordered some stuff for my car!

    i told you those blue ass bulbs were going to be dim as hell. i'd say either buy regular H4 bulbs or if you want them somewhat white some lightly tinted bulbs at one of the parts stores. and i mean really light tinted like you can see through it pretty easy. never get dark blue bulbs, they are always crappy. i can say, dont get piaa bulbs. those, IMO, were a waste of money.

    Re: Cool Ordered some stuff for my car!

    here's an idea.... I'm thinking on taking out the "dome reflector" (you can see them in the pix...) that go inside the headlight enclosures, it seems to me that, that may be the problem cause they kinda "cover" the bulbs... I don't know.... and also I got to find a way to waterproof them cause it rained on friday and then early saturday it turned to snow and well you can see where I am going with this.... the rain froze to ice in the enclosures....
