Cant say I enjoy all the sharp lines on cars like that. Theres just too much.
But if youre happy then thats all that matters

[Elision]

So, I went ahead and did it.. Couldn't help myself.

Recently purchased this (Should arrive Mid-April) :

I know many people don't like the new look but the more I see, the more I love.

Although, Now I can mod the crap out of my other and not have to worry as much about it.

awesome, you gonna do anything to it or just leave it stock?

Anyone good with sound? I decided I needed more bass and shit, and wanted to buy myself a subwooffer, and my cousin had one of these he wasnt using, so I got it for free

Is it any good? Atleast for free, it should be something lel. Also, is it hard to install?

It'll be better than nothing, that's for sure! And as far as installation, if you don't really know what you're talking about when it comes to car audio(I don't either really) I would just take it to an audio place to get it installed. Installation shouldn't be too expensive and you know it's being done right yanno!

[Elision]

rolly it greatly depends on the car you're putting it into. also you'll want to get some insulation in your door panels, dash, trunk etc. to block the sound from getting outside the car. nobody likes that guy

[Elision]

yeah you'll definitely be able to power everything from one of the fuse boxes, and it looks like there's plenty trunk space to sink it into. just drop it off at a local audio customs garage (check their google reviews first, there's shitty places out there), let them know exactly what you want done, and grab a taxi home for the day, or grab a rental if you need one, and they should have it done within a day or two. don't try installing yourself if you're new to this stuff, you'll just make a mess. especially with BMW's, they're not easy to take apart and put back together. almost as bad as audi's.

blowing up this thread sup


slammed and cleared the headlights of the 1/36 scale b that lives on my dash


the newly-modded toy b reinstalled/relocated, as well as the Padanky grill and the new 5000k HID's - although now considering 6000k since I plan on painting the box a very light tiffany blue in the near future, plus it'll better match the fogs and 6k switchback turn signals soon to be installed. still these are much better than the halogen bulbs i had in there. you'll also notice a new JP fusa kiku and a neat boa i found while at Michael's to put on my dash. i love it.


tried to fit a couple of things into this pic, mainly an interior shot of the boa but also the fusa kiku and a sweet little JP sticky mat.

better pic of the mat

swapped my Luxis pedals for these JP ones that i've been after for a long time. still have the Luxis foot rest pedal thing over there on the left but i'll probably remove it soon. any suggestions for what to put there would be awesome :rolleyes:

featured in this pic: headrest placeholder bars (finally), JP belt pads and JP hip pads because Todd makes them seem so nice (and they are)


and chrome pillars! unfortunately they don't quite match the bottom window lining but i planned to change that anyway so hopefully i can find something that better matches. again, open to any suggestions.
new dome light (the blue led was cool but inconvenient) moved my phone mount to to the opposite side, closer to me. wasn't able to do this with the old oem wheel.


JDM Coin Tray


had to snap off some small brackets in the back. just used a key.


headliner!


rear deck from teabox. wrapped in spare headliner.


favorite recent addition: JP valve caps!


and here's an updated full interior pic


shaved hatch and DC exhaust (also installed an AEM cold air intake and zach's OBX SS header)
oh, and a new plate cover. the smoked one didn't work without the smoked fogs/black heads.

[ChristinaE12]

Damn that XB is coming along quite nicely.. Can always appreciate and respect people putting hard work into their stuff.

Unfortunately, my plans for my STI's have came to a halt. For a while, anyways..




All because I picked this thing up right here and now will probably get my full attention for quite some time.

[Elision]

nice! what do you have planned for it?? also the b has come a long way since those pics, i'll post a couple pics later, i appreciate the kind words.

edit: you can just find my build thread here if anyone cares: http://www.clubxb.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52368
