Can you spot the BMW Parts on this car????

[MYKN]

is it just the headlights?? thats all i can see

[ramminghard]

rims?? Headlights, mirrors. thats all i see. i think that that 1.6 is supercharged. not sure though.

[Wask]

First post and im gonna say mirrors?

[oasis]

those mirrors are stock..... i think its just the lights.

[ninspeed]

Yep.. Just the lights.. BMW X-5.. And yes it has a supercharger. Tony did these awhile ago.. but i was just looking at my old pictures..

[ramminghard]

How hard is that conversion?

[kevie88]

Hey!! That car has my rims! I've only seen one other set of those!

[Pete92SL]

These are real X5 Lights

Infact, those look like angle eye replacements for the stock lights. Doesn't look like any body work was done to it at all to fit those lights.

Infact, under further inspection:

All that owner did was add a lip kit, wheels and angel eye lights to the exterior.Other then that...Identical. Look at the hood creases for the lights. The hood would have to be modified extremely well for X5 lights. The lighting system would have to be wired like crazy to handle the HID lighting and angel eye rings.
It could be a JDM front bumper though....but probably not.

lol, Detective Pete!! good job! :thumbsup:....I didnt think they looked quite like X5 lights. :dunno:

[Hakkola]

Yeah, I thought they looked different from X5 too, but couldn't remember exactly what x5's looked like so didn't say anything, those lights look pretty much the same as accord lights

[silverEL]

rims, front lip, headlights, grill, bumper lights, CAI, lowered

[ramminghard]

painted side skirts

[jdmakkord]

it looks like he took the projector out of the X5 headlight and put it in his el housing. Accord guys have been doing this ever since the audi tt came out. A little bit of fibreglass and a lot of creativity.

here is another pic of the lights.

[SpoonEK9@STRD]

Actually the mirrors could be differnt. coz the 1.6 came with both side mirrors... folding and civic style.

Bumper lights, Front Lip, Head lights, grill, wheels, paint...


ooooo destroyed

[lammer]

silver emblem thingy! nice lights though..i like them angel eyes.

[three.eighteen.]

makes the car look kinda googly eyed...

[92 Teg-B18A]

looks so good!

[shadowz]

Mirrors are stock, for the frist 2 years el came with non folding mirrors, but other than the lights and wheels I notice a little ghetto coldair tube in the bumper

[RiceCake]

lowered, rims, intake, and headlights is all I see
