MFactory is a sponsor here, and they make a great product......well worth the investment... and in my opinion, it's worth doing before a lot of other mods.

I ordered a steering guibo, and yellow LED H7 bulbs for the DRLs. I love the yellow GT look, but I’m not 100% convinced I want to paint the reflector bowls just yet. We’ll see once they arrive off the literal slow-boat from China.

I read 5°C this morning. Last week we had highs a hair over 30°C. No wonder everyone’s sick!

i love the yellow look too!

I only put yellow LED bulbs for Fogs for now.

i just redid my Angel eyes last night. i wired them to only come on with the headlights and coded the stock DRL high beam bulbs on so during the day I get the DRL look i love with the center lights but at night I get my halo angel eyes on all 4 lights.

I may go ahead yellow h7 leds for the DRL as well if I see what yours look like.

No offense taken.

FWIW I'm a former Mustang owner. Torsen was a popular LSD with the Mustang crowd, and they can be had for a LOT less than $1k (see below.) I don't understand what makes the BMW units so expensive. Torsen is widely regarded as a track-worthy product on cars putting 400+hp to the wheels, so it's not a cheap product.

For reference: http://www.maximummotorsports.com/To...ial-P1456.aspx

difference being there are a lot more mustangs and mustang owners out in the world than bmw owners looking for an LSD option so the price is drastically lower across the board for mustangs from R&D to production which lowers costs to you.

I may be a bit biased 'bout them yellows... the city lights definitely light up the yellow bowls very nicely.

Word, I’ll send pics once they get here.

Get out of here with your economics! Pfft acting like economies of scale is a real thing!

Definitely looks good. And I know they’ll look good against le blue, but I’ll go for the bulb-only dry run first. (Grumbling) you stupid sedan guys and your stupid easily opened housings...I hate baking headlights. Hot butyl is messy af.

You missing-doors folks can't have all the fun with your superior options (LED tails, adaptive headlights, LCM 4.0+ on later cars)... us sedan guys gotta have an edge on something​.
