"tinted" not painted
i used a glass tint

[Rob ITR1035]

colored coatings reduce light output, thats how they make the light that color...true story

Good for you. I'm always happy to hear a motorist is making his lighting system even worse then stock. Perhaps it will assist you in obtaining a Darwin Award.

Which gave you more powa? That or the M badge?

///M, sad, sad indeed. Don't know about the yellow, seems the opposite of what most people are going for, white. Those lights look pretty crazy when they're turned off though. I think you should stay with clear headlights but yellow-tint the fogs, French style, if you want to be like the gay europeans

Hmm...what year M5 engine mounts? Why would you do that? M5 engine mounts are taller than M20 mounts. M20 mounts are very short. You wanted to raise your engine rather than lower it?

[cdnE30]

i felt that, with the drop, it sat too low, and i hit the oil pan a few times, so i figured that if i used the m5 ones, i wouldnt have that problem, and i think the M5 ones are a tad stiffer?

and for the lights,
i just wanted something different, from every other e30 out there, so what the hell, if i dont like them, i can use paint thinner to takeoff the paint

Different, but making your ride crappier.

You could use paint thinner, or just buy new sealed beams as they are like $5 each
