I hope they look good when they're on, they should. I saw them on an R56 on here and it looked great. However, I am worried about the clip at the bottom that holds the halo messing with the whole circle of light. *fingers crossed*

Also hope my silver blinker bulbs will fit.

Agree, silver bulbs will be much sleeker than the orange. And I imagine the halo glow will be bright enough to create a full "halo". I do like how the bezel behind the halo is black, unlike the chrome that I have on my OEM black xenons.

Looking forward to seeing them once you have them on.

Those are OEM Mini Multispokes with 205-45-17 tires. 17" with ET48. Got 15mm spacers and is lowered with a KW V1. Got some rubbing with this setup when there is some vacatione lugage in the back. With the 18" R113 summer wheels no problems at all due to the slightly higer ET (52).

Those blacked out fenders look great. I keep thinking about doing that as well.

Thanks. Doing the fenders is not difficult, just time consuming.....

All I do is fold the seat forward and the panels pull up easily with the sub still mounted. I can access both floor without unmounting the sub. But if you do need to take it out, you only remove 2 long screws securing it to the mounts.

Rockford Fosgate Punch - P3L-S10 - Subwoofer enclosure

I have a Rockfort Fosgate 10" Punch which IMHO is a better solution. For one you do not lose vital trunk space on the top floor, secondly it is not screwed in and can be removed in seconds by disconnecting the speaker wires. It fits in the lower floor with enough clearance to not have the sub hit the floor cover. I prefer this set up because it is not visible.
