:happy2: Xenon's look Dapper mate! how much is it for the whole jubly for the xenons? from std lights with no headlight washers to auto level xenons with washers?

Thanks, Think xenons go for 400-500+ depending on the condition. Not to sure about all the others but ebay will most prob be your best bet or keep an eye out in the for sale section  :happy2: Its a big job to  fit them as i found out at the weekend  :signLOL:

Thought I'd catch up on how the silver bullet is getting on!
Looking good mate, wouldn't recognise her if I saw you in the street. Hope she's running well.

Cheers  :happy2: she has changed quite abit. Going to have a big change soon. As i have got a full body kit (rear, skirts, splitter) blueflame exhaust, coilovers, r32 rear lights and a few other mods aswell. After fitting xenons the cost is mounting up fast. She is running well havnt had a single problem (touch wood)

Hope you have settled in to you new house

The car has totally changed and for the better  :smiley:

Fitted:
Smoothed rear bumper, side skirts, front splitter, exhaust, coilovers, R32 rear lights

It still needs abit of tweaking to get it the way i want it to look. (exhaust tips higher, centre section of the splitter, front is higher than the back) but waiting for the coilovers to settle as they were only fitted yesterday.

Heres a few pics

Thanks  :happy2: The only thing i dont like about the side skirts is that they are abit lower than the splitter but its not enough to put me off lol. I got FK coilovers, Think i have about 10mm left on the front a quite abit on the back.

Nice!
Thinking of getting mine colour coded in October and getting a new splitter and I think this may well be the one! How much am I looking for one of them?

Also as a rough guide for me how much did it cost you in total as this is exactly what I want. I.e smooth tear r32 number and all coded?

Thanks

I paid about $400 by the time i paid for shipping and handling., But was worth it when it got delivered. Mine is the V4 version.

I brought the R32 bumper off a member on here and it was already smoothed so i just had to paint it. To get everything sprayed i paid £500. 450 was to spray and fit the bodykit and 50 was to get the exhaust fitted. But it was my mates dad who owns the bodyshop so he did it cheaper for me :innocent:

If you can wait im sure the bits you are after will come up for sale some where doubt the front splitter will tbh, So will be abit cheaper than buying brand new. I brought all mine new from germany apart from the rear bumper so would of paid abit more than waiting for bits to come up for sale
