Did a search as I think I saw that someone had found and installed carbon fiber headlight rings a while back, but can not find anything on it.

Anyone here know of these things?
Thanks

 

Ucom

 

yeah,

 

they dont have them yet!! i've been waitin' since last winter.......

they r' "on a boat on it's way here" is what they said last week.

 

here is a japanese company who carries them....just incase umnitza is too long of a wait

they pop up on ebay for 200 a set every once in a great while.

 

crap man, we need a US distributor for the japanese parts, they really know what they are doing!!!!

 

so if theres enough interest!?!? a group buy would help!! cuz their priced at a little under 180 $'s i know a few people who would probably go 4 it!!

that japanese site looks pretty kool!!

 

g'damn, nice find. check out the link on the left underneath "DME Tune" its got a bouncy NEW .gif next to it. The link shows a bunch of rides their company has tuned, I want the Cool Blue S Cabrio with BBS LMs and PSS9s, its got an interesting exhaust setup too.

 

CF arches as well









and a wicked (hopefully functional ) spoiler

 

thx, but i'd rather not pay their exotic shippin' fee!! i trust that they will come through...(Umnitza)
--like the arches, but would like to see them on a dark car! think it would look much better!!

 

I like the CF arches and wanted to know where to get some info on this items?

Thanks Tuls, your the man............

 

why oh why can't i make myself like carbon fiber? for some reason, i just don't like the look of it, but i keep feeling that i should.....oh well, to each his own, huh?

 

COOL

 

The japanese site says the headlight rim covers are just stickons? Is this correct?

 

I dont know....just pointing you in the right direction :smile:

 

Ahhhh...a worthy replacement for the cheap plastic wheel arches :drool:


The japanese sight says the headlight rim covers are just stickons? Is this correct?

I don't have a language pack installed on my comp at work, but when I get home Ill let you know (I can read japanese).

 

I thought he had bought them and actually had them, that's why I asked. A lot fo the eBay CF is just sticky taped, not real.

Thanks for reading the Japanese... but I just went to google and let them translate ... works great. Just disappointed they read as stickies.

 

Looks, just like vinyl sticker to me..

Why not travel down to a local sign shop and cut them out yourself??

 

ummmm yah....never put fake CF vinyl on your car EVER.....distasteful

 

I would recommend staying away from Umnitza, i know alot of people who have had very bad runins with them, including myself on my 3 series

 

whaaaaat??? let me in on their short comings???

 

well hey man thx for explanation jus wanted to make sure there will b no problems w/ur Co. ill be phonin' u soon on those cf rings....

--u know! other than the long wait for this c/f bitz i've had a good impression w/u guy's over there

laters,
