Nice car you got there mate... What kinda mpg you getting from her???

 

[Molehill_Mike]

Thanks

MPG depends on my journey and traffic... worst is high 28s on short busy journeys... best is high 40s/very low 50s on long cruisin journeys...

 

[Molehill_Mike]

Since the map MPG has improved

Result!

 

[sssstew]

yep this can be the way if you dont cane it everywhere, the extra toque means that its not so laboured and you dont have to change down so much.

 

[Molehill_Mike]

Yeah your right. I love crusing on the motorway then bam! hehe

Its still nice to let loose in her tho, certainly not boring

**-* Update *-**

In the process of changing my headlights

Angel eyes and HIDs are coming

Pics will be up tomorrow, spent most of today cleaning lights and removing the LCR bumper!!

Thanks for those on the end of a phone

Should look V smart on yours Mike!

 

[Molehill_Mike]

OK here we go.....

Standard....

The NEW Lights...

Getting Bumper Off!

Lights In....

Bumper Kinda On....

Complete!!

Will try some night shots in a bit, got a feeling it won't look right as not got the HIDs yet or the White LEDs for the rings, so might look naff, will find out in a few hours!!

Any idea how to align my the lights?! Chalk and a wall I am assuming, and adjusting of screws?!

That looks so much better Mike - the chrome doesn't look out of place on your car at all!

 

[Molehill_Mike]

Cheers buddy!!! Few pics with lights on...only camera phone with fading light!

Sidelights

Dipped

Main

Will head outside in a bit and get some video and check alignment etc...

I think they set the front of the car off nicely - not that i'm biased or anything.

 

[Molehill_Mike]

Cheers mate, mostly your doing on all accounts eh?

Righto, 2 vids, first one is sidelights, and second is dipped beam. The white LED I am not sure on at the mo (it sits in the main beam but comes on with sidelights)....

Vid 1 - WILL ADD WHEN P.BUCKET SORTS ITSELF OUT!

Vid 2 - WILL ADD WHEN P.BUCKET SORTS ITSELF OUT!


Alignment shots...

Wink

Just awaiting delivery of 6000K HIDs, and white LEDs instead of the yellow 501s for the rings....


Cheers...& comments welcome!!

Cant wait for the white LEDS and the HIDS though

Still not sure on the single white LED, what do you guys think?

I think take it out - you either want sidelight and no angel eyes or angel eyes and no sidelight.
