Josh sorted them for us

Ingenio · 06-16-2016, 06:53 PM

Nice! I've got mine all stacked up waiting to go! :-)

Had the headlights refurbished, blacked out and new Orion DTM Halos installed. Came out pretty good I think. https://www.umnitza.com/orion-dtm-sq...r-e9x-e60.html

Nice work mate!

JJH · 12-27-2016, 05:28 PM

Very nice - super bright too!!

cplagz · 01-05-2017, 01:59 AM

How close do your halos sit to the inside of the headlight cover Dave?

American Dave · 01-05-2017, 02:56 AM

Not sure but will have a good look and get back to you with an estimate because I didn't do the work myself.

dean87 · 01-05-2017, 05:56 PM

Nice! Who did the work?

Sweet thanks. Are yours the offset sizing or same? I'm thinking about just ordering new ones to save f*cking around with mine... Believe I got sent E90 ones not E9x M3, so they hit the front lens.

American Dave · 01-06-2017, 02:42 AM

Ok so there is almost no distance between lense and halo, but the guy who did mine also used like blacked out eyeliner inside the lense and then glued the halo to it in two spots. I went with the larger offset halos

Ok thanks mate, I'll try fix mine first then.

American Dave · 01-06-2017, 03:24 AM

Rhys Anderson at RE Automotive Enhancements did the work

American Dave · 01-18-2017, 03:38 AM

Bumpers have both been repaired and resprayed now and waiting for 3 weeks until I can get the PPF applied to the bonnet and bumper.

Looking good Dave, the DTMs really set the car off. Great work! You'll have to keep the flag flying now with the Chris's car gone into retirement.
Stu's car is looking great too with the recent pics

American Dave · 02-09-2017, 05:52 PM

Bumpers resprayed and Paint Protection Film installed on the front of the car now.
If you are looking for a panel and paint guy who is local and reasonably priced then hit me up. If you want a recommendation of the PPF then go to Protec in Osborne Park. If it ever stops raining I will post some pics.

Pretty sure Dave used Owen @ Melthams Panel and Paint in Bayswater. He's looked after a few of us now I believe.
