edit: saw the buried in mcat books headline.. well good luck bro. Med school is a good choice. I should say good luck on the o-chem section..lol.. you'll do well.. as long as you shed the mod bug before you take the test.. ha.
lol, yeah that's what i was last halloween I'm a double major, chemistry and economics; so, I'm not too worried about the gen and orgo chem part, I had it pretty rough during my major requirements lol, it's physics and bio I should be worried about.

Yeah, being a doctor is a recession-proof profession
I will def put the car away before the test, lol. I'll keep you posted on the headlight work.

You know, I did take a picture of the lip for an innuendo of what wheel this actually is, but I realized that it would give it away because it isn't like most lips. (THAT in and of itself is a hint too)

First off, brian congruatulations on reaching your second semseter of senior year. Graduating is a big in my book. After that let's see the real money roll in

Your car is going to look hot with those things. With all the money you spend on your car, do you drive naked? lol

Oznium is amazing. I don't even know how they ship their products so fast too. Oznium angel eyes ftw.

The oznium rings...they are way cheaper then the other companies. Does the inverter or whatever come with or is that why they are so cheap?

Yes, you can't beat Oznium's prices. The rings are THICKER, AND fuller of a circle. It's ~1mm wider in diameter but it shouldn't cause problems.

More pics of the meisters

Damn Bri, you never cease to amaze, always full of surprises, lol. Final projects my ass, lol!

I am impressed you went the SUPER extra mile to play with those BMW parts. Yep BMW always used fiber-optics for their angel-eyes. The light source is a replaceable halogen bulb. All in all a good idea, I can bet you they will keep a similar system in the future with fiber optics but instead use LEDs. They draw less and give a better glow. The nice even spread of the light is nice. If I am not mistaken the lights are made by Hella.....yeah you can't go wrong there. E46 lenses, Hmm gotta see this!

So you have switched to oznium? Nice it looks like the the mere mms are negligible and they should fit fine. I am STILL on a search to find rings in a 8000K color! Oracles seem to be the only ones available.....I don't feel like spending $300 on them if Oznium is selling them for like $25, lol! That's all their worth, they're just measley little coated rings filled with gas......CCFL components for computers are SO cheap <$10!! These bastards are ALL importing them from 3rd world countries anyways and just marking them up to outerspace because we are car enthusiasts.

Nice idea with the LED strips. GOTTA post pics of this setup man! Looks like you are setting yourself up to be the next headlight guru! LOL! Mr. modmeister, you have come a long way! I think you will be in surgery with me one day, lol!

New wheels, hahaha damn bro those are gonna look beyond SICK on your NBP.......Rotara BBKs? FINALLY Damn kid you are going to be #1 in NYC soon!! PROPS!!

Haha thanks man! You and allon are probably the ones who broke my headlight cherry, I'm going to open up my type s headlights at my friends apt in a couple of days! And yeah, oznium FTW.. their halos are so much better. I'm not so crazy for the whole blue look; white is fine for me. I hoped that the 535i angel eye DRLs would somehow fit but even the small ring is huge lol.

I'll try to get everything installed as soon as I can.. just waiting on the BBK to come in so I can bring all my parts back home and get everything done in one shot there. See ya around

lol, really though, I plan on keeping this set for quite a long time, I'll even put a bet on it. Not sure about the March meet but I'll def see you guys come summertime
