So stopped by my local shop on black Friday and got some turn signals for the front bumper. should be in on monday. Kinda wish i got the black ones or smoked.... but for 100 bucks Why not ?
Maybe i can get them smoked or tinted to hing the chrome. and out of all honest they don't look that bad.
buddy of mine came back from japan and brought this back for me. WHAT A GUY. Knight Sport EBS II Boost Controller.

Well some quick updates.
got the turn signals on REALLY REALLY wanna smoke them.
since i can remember i have been having this dip stick problem where when under boost the damn thing would pop up ! BLAH oil all over the drive side of the motor. Well like an idiot i have been ignoring it..... figured it had to be something small.
So i decided to do a quick search on the forum and found out i need a new PCV or PVC ? so i guess i will be replacing that......

Ok guy's So i got bored over the weekend and decided to do some work on the turn signals. So i checked on youtube and found some video's of bimmer vid on how to install angle eyes on E36's. I found a bunch of video's that really helped out. found out that u need to bake them in the oven for a few mins.......
however i didn't feel comfortable putting them in the oven so the glue could soften. so i decided to use my heat gun at and just take my time.
Tools i used
razor, Heatgun and Box Cutter.
First i ran a razor around the edge of the housings.
I ran the heatgun on high on the back side of the housing and with the razor i slowly tried to work the clear plastic lens out.
Took my time with the it BAM. strange it looks like it cracked in the pic.
I decided to paint the housing Satin black. I haven't decided what im gonna do with lenses yet. I'm thinking i may tint them light blue blue or smoke them out.
