What have you done to your P5 today?

[blinduno]

Are those just the stock fogs with silverstars? I need to figure out a solution for my now uber dim fogs since I went HID. They look pathetic now and need to be brighter. I reaimed my headlights today...trying to find the perfect balance between aiming them down the road while not blinding oncoming drivers.

yuup stockers with silverstar H3 bulbs... i was really impressed!
i hit a deer and killed one of my lights... finally got some replacements. what ever bulds where in them stock sucked balls!
i had replaced all headlight bulbs with the silvers not to long ago and was really impressed so i did them in the fogs too...
they are the (boobs)

oh, and dont get silverstar for the fogs.... they arent any brighter than the cheapos. i got hids in the lows, and my fogs are pathetic too. however, i use my fogs as running lights during the day. foglight mod ftw!

Edit: funny we had different results with the same stuff.

ahhh so that means that a 5mm on the 45 offset is too much right?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

45mm is pretty good for a p5, not sure why u want to go lower?

i dont really know as far as putting to much load on the studs, or bearings.
with mine was i most worried about making sure i had enough stud to get the wheels tight enough, and still having enought threads used so i didnt pull them out of the nuts.

for reference... hid lows, silverstar fogs... i want something more white in the fog department.

get another hid kit.

did the bc install yesterday. stock endlinks were all shot. need to get another set since the bc's onlu come with one pair. Once that is done it will be great.

When I installed them we didnt put them to full drop. they still have some room. need to pull and roll the back tho. they are hitting on bad bumps.

So far soo good.

i just drooled on my keyboard.

 

[Bret2002]

you had them too!!!!hahaha i have no idea where to even begin shopping for wynstars! the car came out fine. i lost traction in the middle of the corner but i managed to stay on the gas and avoind going over the far curb (one of those mean 90 degree angle curbs) and i thought i had it managed and kind of let of the gas because i had to stay on it to avoid major front end plow, so ilet off and the tires hooked back up and launched me over the other curb. nothing to bad just jarred the car real bad. had i aftermarket wheels on my car im sure they would have cracked but these things are tanks to say the least. no damage to the car at all it appears. it was kind of a rookie mistake with it being partly my fault using to much gas going in to the apex of the corner but it wasnt anything a better set of tires could handle. so it was a little my fault and alot on the tires. also the wet handling on these is attrocious. stay away at all costs!!!

well that just solidified it for me. BC's are getting bought as soon as I have money.

Yours looks sick

Its a carbon fiber overlay. but, with a few screws it does come off.

Open the hatch and look around the handle. there are screws there if mem serves correct.

Thanks for the comments

I started to put the reactive header in then remembered I needed to get a second o2 bung welded on before I can install it. Darn it....

You are gonna have a hard time welding in an 02 bung into the Ractive header

Trust me, i wasted one in welding one into mine.

You can leave it unplugged and get a CEL, or, have an 02 bung welded into the midpipe then either pick up the MSP extention or just cut and splice your wires

anybody have these from xenon expert? (I know Tylor did a custom job)
