Thanks!

I finally got it... back!

CAS control unit (pictured) replaced.

Not the best weather for driving or taking pics though.

MO3 · 01-26-2012, 03:50 AM

Some pics I took today.

I've done my first mod this arvo which was LUX H8 V3 angel eyes. Love them! Thanks to SBC for selling them and bmroxm5 for installing them.

Comparison pic.

Lights off.

Lights on.

cruvon · 01-26-2012, 05:13 AM

Beautiful pics MO3, your cars a stunner!

BMWPWR · 01-26-2012, 05:19 AM

Nice work!! Looks awesome. Can't wait to get it done to mine!

MO3 · 01-26-2012, 05:57 AM

Thanks guys!

I'm starting to forget the V35. The 335 is faster and handles 20X better.

Stuart@BMRAutowerkes · 01-26-2012, 07:25 AM

looking good. Lux really set it off, can't believe you got them for such a good price lol.

Let me know when you want a tune

... happy to lend you one for a week or so.

Thanks for the generous offer.

I'm still in the "research" stage though!

Nice shots!! Props to you for having such a clean car and the chance to take such good pics given all the rain for the past 2 weeks. My car hasn't been washed in 3 weeks and starting to look spotty rather than sporty! lol

The gearchanges are very quick.

M03's car has the ZF 6 speed auto which is nice and smooth when driven sedately and provides very fast direct gear changes when required.

The other auto transmission is the DCT, it sacrifices a bit of low speed comfort for even faster shift times when needed. It also gains an extra ratio (its a 7speed)

Thanks mate! As bmroxm5 said, the gear changes are pretty quick.

MO3 · 01-30-2012, 01:46 AM

That's how my car is going to look in a few days... hopefully!

What's better, to go for black wheels or gunmetal ones?

RaihaX · 01-30-2012, 01:55 AM

black wheels!

Gun metal would probably look too close like grey IMO.

need the contrast!

Thanks Ray!

I've been waiting for Kevin @ VMR Wheels to invoice me out on a set of V710's for a couple of days. If I don't hear from him by tomorrow morning, I'm going to order a set of GT-CX's from Jason @ Euro-Divisin in black.

cartaa100 · 01-30-2012, 02:36 AM

what wheels are you running? arent all the similar style wheels nearly as expensive?

RaihaX · 01-30-2012, 06:10 AM

I thought those were forged, I guess they are cast thats why is so cheap (could be wrong though)

most of the CSL style wheels are probably around the 1k mark, obviously won't be as strong/light as forged wheels.

I am running GT-CX 18"
