I've seen a few members on here do the angel eyes...I gotta say I'm a big fan! People say it's a bimmer thing, but it looks great imo. Would do it myself but I'm a little scared of popping my headlights open.

Post photos when it's complete!

do a video of the takeda intake / sound? how do you like it? think it is only a sound mod or do you think it got faster or SLOWER? I've heard people comment it kills low end torque and makes car feel slower in day to day driving.

i like your tail ting and the grills... looks good.

your wheels look too small and sunken in. you need either larger wider wheels or spacers.

a set of spacers would fix the sunken wheels.. even going to 19s would look better.

overall it looks really good. if you threw a set of 20" vessels on there it would be so unbelievably hot!!

nice work overall!

thanks! im gonna try to make a video so you can hear the sound ! but i have no resonator on my car and no cat with a Jpipe! loose power? no not at all ! gain power? i dont know really but theres a member on here that just did a dyno with the takeda and you gain a little bit and you dont loose anything so!

for the wheels i know haha will see i might just put some spacers for the summer or wait until next summer to put some vossen... i did a lot on the car now and my fiancee she start to freak out how much money i spend on cars haha so im taking a little brake:P but for sure next summer im going to put some 20 inch on the car!
