yeh I know what you mean mate. The arches are just made for big wheels

I think they suit it really well too- but never been a fan of aftermarket alloys tbh.

Might look into other options in the coming months, but who knows

Hmm.. can you point me in the right direction of the LED's mate? How hard are they to fit? Do they need soldered in place?

Also- can you uprate the main headlights to HID's and what would I need?

If I can do that- I maybe tempted to keeping them. Only reason I want rid is due to the yellow rings, and poor road lighting they give off.

Front bumper- If you're prepared to hold out until I can afford and source an R32 front bumper- This one will be up for grabs.

you would need these for the main dipped beam

Xenon HID conversion Kit H7,6000K,55W,UK seller on eBay (end time 03-Jan-10 17:29:49 GMT)

you want these for the rings..push fit (though fiddly) and you need 20 of them....so go for the 22 kit...

Cheers bud.

Looks like I'll need to get some of these ordered next month, and find a how-to guide for front bumper removal.

And let the project thread commence!
