been too lazy to do mods. LOL plus...don't really like the idea of taking the headlight apart and re-seal it. helped done that on few of my friends' E46s. condensation became an issue no matter how you seal it.

Yeah man im scared, and think i might pass up on it. I really want c63 headlights bad, but i would have to cough up 2g's and sell my bi xenons.

or

I could crash the front end of my ride and just pay the difference lol, my headlights are like $1500 a pop and the c63 headlights are $2000, so 1000.00 plus deductible, save 500 bucks .... j/k.

awwww .... low balling lol

No i mean each c63 headlight is two thousand, so thats four thousand for both. The bi xenons are fifteen hundred each, this means i would have to let them go for around two thousand for the pair inorder to meet some peoples budgets. Just to clear that up. Im from the w203 era so i remember how much people bought them bi xenons for, i was one of them.

Umm practically everything engine tranny suspension wheels turbo charger rotors hood headlights tail lights exhaust headers and no its not a chop shop or anything and I'm not blowing smoke I will take pics to prove what I'm saying but I would rather deal locally. But doesn't mean you out of state guys couldn't get a locally trust worthy member to check out parts and ship them out as I know since I'm a new member and very little post and with new items people are probably thinking scam or this is to good to be true!

wait, so you have all these spare parts and you're selling them? or you're putting them on? You weren't too clear with your statement. What turbo charger are you putting in? Front loaded or remote?
