I would say the body kit will make more difference but only if you already have a good set of rims.

First bodykit, then bi-xenons. The lights will get a bit cheaper as time passes (only factor that prevent this from happening is the Euro keep rising). Ultimately, get BOTH!!!

You can find knock-off body kits for Carlsson and Lorinser fairly easily. You might beable to afford both!

i dunno, im still partial to the bug eye look of the BIX. the old xenons looked astectically like the halogens. the BIX really change the front of the car.

i love the bi-xenons. they give such an updated look to the front of the car and really make more of a difference than a lip would.

Question: how many of you if you already have XENON will upgrade to the BIXENON just for the looks?

to me, sure the bixenon looks good, but i'm more about functionality on this headlight issue.

that's a good point FrankW. im interested to see how many would go "fashion" over "function".
