I spent 6 hours detailing the car today.
Wash/clay
degreased and dressed wheel wells and underbody
-cleaned engine bay
-M86, M3,(with rotary) show car glaze, hi-tech yellow wax
-Mothers chrome polish/dress plastic




Thought i'd take some pics of HID w/ cutoff line for those considering to upgrade. These are 55W 5000k HIDs from DDM tuning..i've had them for 3 months

-the glare above the cutoff line comes from the chrome trim bezel around the projector.

Hint of blue at the cutoff line

Nice HID's. Way better than Halogen, never going Halogen again.

Nice work Tuan. Clean car, sweet lights.
Wish I had me a garage to keep my baby!

And sorry for going off topic for a sec, but...

Parker Gen: my condolences for the devastating loss of life in your country due to the recent wild fires.

5000K @ 55W is approx. 1000k less in color temp.
So the color temp is about 4000k, a little less than stock.

Thank you for your thoughts, even though I and a majority of others were not personally affected, a lot of people around the nation put in to help those that were out.
The fact that some was caused by arson is in-excusable, and I believe the perpetrator is currently serving time.
