Hello,

Just wondering if anybody has his/her car got work done at Harbor Motor Sports in Santa Ana, CA?

If so, what have you done?

Thank you for your info~

Vic55

I have had tons of stuff done there from wheels to spoilers to paint work. Check my sig for my two current cars.

They are not too big to make you feel small if you know what I mean. They still provide service on a personal level and their prices are excellent.

Im having HIDs installed on Friday... is 100 too much just for the installation? It was originally 150, but they didnt have the parts when I went, so they knocked it down to 100. From what I hear on this site they are really good at what they do.

Thank you Vic, for the info. Any particular person I can ask to take care my ride?

Vic55

Ask for Jon or Edison.

Had all my stuff done there, great place.

I'm friends with them and they are top notch. Always hook me and the SD folks up.

I just got one of the first sets of KW V3 coils for my M6 installed yesterday there. Amazing service, price and just real good people. The coils were too big and hitting the inner side of my tire so we couldnt drop it enough. Ed, the owners son immediately jumped in his truck and bolted thru traffic two towns over to get me some H&R track spacers.

He could have just left my car at that height and ordered them but instead used his own personal funds to make sure my car was ready. This was the final product:

Vic...your white M6 is amazing to look at...WOW!

Vic55

Thanks bro, its a little OT but that car even though it is slower than my modded E55 brings a smile to me each and every day. The involvement that the engine and SMG (I know its a pita) bring is worth the price of admission and its a really fun car to mod and admire visually.

Vic...now THAT is money!!!!

Looks killer buddy!!!

holy sex, that m6 is money!

Hey Vic, I love how the M6 came out. I went back today to get some 8000 HIDs installed. I love em. Very good guys and very good service. They have me as a customer for life!

Vic55

Wait, did you not get 6000k's yesterday? Or did you swap those for the 8000k's today?

Dont forget to do your fogs with HID's too, makes a hella of difference.

W211 BEAST

The 6000s had an issue (one of them stopped working) so when I went back they didnt have another 6000 set that worked right, so when I was about to leave with one blue light and one white light (temporarily, until they gt me a new set) Ed came out and said that there was no way he was gonna let me leave like that. Then came the upgrade I decided right then and there that even though they are an hour from my house, no matter what I need done to my car, I'm going to them. I'm going back on wed for a new tire, white side markers, and "stealth" front blinkers. They are great guys over there. I honestly couldnt imagine giving my business to anyone else. And about the fogs: I was thinking about doing em, but I never drive with my fogs on (I always forget to turn them off). But I do need brighter lights for the 2 inner headlights, even though HMS changed em for me they still look a little yellow. What do you guys suggest? Any specific brand/model that you guys uses? Info would be helpful. Thanks

BTW: Vic, that is the only M6 that I like, and I like it a lot.

Vic55

What Jangy said rings so true, its a like a family BBQ. I have been to many a good tuner, IE Evosport and others but HMS takes it to a higher personal level (in a good way) whether you wish to hang there or not. They are not your HP tuner but more of the cosmetic side and they do an awesome job. They also hook up exhausts, body kits, brakes, lowering, stereos, lights, and of course wheels plus countless other things which you would forget until you see others with the mods on their car.

As for the light bulbs (city lights)- my only suggestion is Polarg M80's...called hyperblue and Ed has them on his E55 so when you are there check them out.

W211 BEAST

I'll definitely check his out. But a question about the HIDs... do they take time to charge up when you turn on the car? Sometimes one works and the other doesnt. And it keeps alternating. Afetr a while though they both work. Is that normal? Am I just being OCD?

Vic55

Thats the ignitors at work, it can take a second or two for them to fire up. Is your engine on when you turn on the lights or are you turning on the lights with out power?

jangy

LOL!! That is exactly how it is for anyone, except for your problems. They are definitely cool cats.

I smell a mini meet!!

W211 BEAST

I'm definitely down for a mini meet, I'm going back on Friday for the rest of my stuff.

Vic: Its whenI'm turning on my car that it happens. And another thing, the lights never turn off, if the engine is on, the lights are on, whether the lights are set to auto or off. Is that how it normally is? BTW... the HIDs look cool as hell!

Vic55

Thats weird- and should not be a reflection of a changed bulb. If your light switch is in the off position they should not be on?

W211 BEAST

^I figured it out- Im an idiot. I just needed to change an option in the dash menu. All is fixed

Blue_Monster

It was nice meeting you this weekend. Ill see you later this week for those sidemarkers and stealthbulbs

nlpamg

I can vouch for them.

I've gotten my tires there. Good guys, great service and excellent prices!

Unlike other places, they take care of you and it's usually a quick in and out deal--no waiting, no hassles.

W211 BEAST

Actually... I also want the lights that you have in your E55, the 2 inner headlights. Keep em in stock for me. I just dropped the beast off with Serge, so it might be a while before I come back for em.
