Definitely. But it's sinful to roll non-OEM wheels. unsure.gif

Oh also how come everyone with the HOVA headlights, the corners are all fogged up always?

Mine don't. His are probably fogged because he just washed the car. I don't have that problem.

Beautiful car Gregg! Red 850Rs are my favourite!

As much as I like antherecite volans, them BBS rims were on another level! Volans for the winter, BBS for summer?

haha, that is funny for two reasons...1: you made that statement sounding so sure of yourself - but you were wrong. 2: you only have 4 posts and made a statement sounding so sure of yourself - and you were wrong smile.gif

I'm just givin' ya a hard time cool.gif Welcome to the board.

If iPd sold them, no one would be able to afford to buy them. smile.gif Probably why they don't carry them.

looks good Gregg



about the HOVA corners.....i was advised to change the seals on both the bulb sockets there to thicker ones....i'll probably do that this weekend and get them a bit thicker, but also just a bit softer so they seal tighter


just hit up HD or somewhere that you can get those o-ring shaped seals....take the old ones with you to get the right size

Yep, i've noticed that too recently in mine. The seals around the bulbs don't seem thick enough. Also, remove the L-shaped rubber piece and cover that hole too. Apparently the clear jewel turn signals don't have that rubber piece - it is a completely sealed housing.

Car looks great as always! What percentage tint did you get? Where did you have it done? I have to replace my tint, 15% is too dark and illegal so I failed my state inspection. I guess they are really cracking down on illegal tint in MA now. If I get my tint replaced 35% it is.

i just replaced the larger bulb seals with thicker rubber o-rings, but couldn't find a good fit for the smaller parking lights....we'll see how that goes, also did the same thing for my side markers, which also fog up

I don't know what L-shaped piece you're talking about though.

lol, 35% pizza.gif Mine is 5% all around now. I had the tint removed from the front 2 windows (20%) so that I could pass inspection. Then I had 5% put on its place. It was done down in Wrentham at Driver's Side.

But the tint that was put on in the front is a nice charcoal/gray color, while the rest of my tint has a bluish/purplish hue to it. I don't like the disparity, so I think I am going to have the rest of the windows retinted to match the front ph34r.gif
