Evelyn • My E46 Build Thread

[andysapp]

Yeah, I posted a request on E46Fanatics asking for a photo of it installed, and someone obliged, thankfully. I don't normally have much luck when asking for help on there. My threads usually go unanswered. If I can't find a previous post about whatever I'm looking for, I'm usually SOL. This time someone came through though!

cool that someone hooked you up with a picture. so this thing is on now? all settled?

[andysapp]

No not yet. Matt got tied up over the weekend, and I haven't had a chance to mess with it.

My replacement lenses arrived today! Time to get the ol' ones off the car.

I also pulled the trigger on that Hamann knockoff window spoiler. Dude shipped it out today.
It'll need primer and paint. Anyone have any clue what that might cost?

[P.Haire]

ask howard, he is a hobbyist body man.

dude beside battleground painted my suby hood satin black on top and gloss black on the bottom +clear coat on both sides for 150. your wing is less than 1/3 the size of a hood so i figure maybe 50-70 bucks

[andysapp]

Okay sweet. Jeff did my lip-kit... but I don't even remember how much it was hahaha.

jason at sprayglo duluth does a good job. you should ask alex how much.. because he gets paintwork done by him.

Anything with tuck n rolled rear buckets is automatically cool.

Oh MANNNNNNNNNNN the temptation. Good thing I don't have the cash right now. I will own one of those one day. I love them immennnnnnsely.

My spring spritzer parts are starting to pile up.

New bulbs for the Xenons. They were supposed to be hella PURP... but I just put these in, and they look blue/green. The box they sent them in wasn't labeled... so I dunno if they sent the wrong ones or what.


I couldn't find that gat damn Kryon stained glass spray paint. But I did see some people that liked this stuff. Vans yellow paint. It was over twice the price of the Krylon... but I think it will be worth it. I'm gonna try and hit those high beam reflectors with this tomorrow.


Used set of fogs so I can finally replace the one I shattered in '06. I may try and bake these so I can hit the reflectors with yellow as well. I may try and polish the lenses up on these. I still need to find a driver-side foglight bezel.


The window spoiler arrived. I think it is going to look dick once it is all painted. It has way more contact with the car... so I don't think this one will fly off the car like the last one.

Dang I was going to yellowize my highbeams too, I guess I won't now.

I want the yellow HID fogbulbs though. How hard are they to wire up??

[Epik]

andy, use 3m window weld urethane on the spoiler, you'll never lose it.

what did you order for HIDs 10,000k? if you wanted them purple.. mine are 5,000k and almost pure white, slight blue.
