    Stuck in traffic, saw Sweet e38 in LA, you on here?

    Driving back from Santa Barbara to Laguna today, got stuck in traffic near sunset blvd. on the 405. Saw a dude driving a nice 7, silver/ gray with Alpina wheels. Had a deck/trunk spoiler, and quad exhaust. Just wondering if he posts on here. He was selling the wheels.

    Wow, those are rare wheels.

    OT, nidyanazo, have you installed your crystal fogs yet?

    No for sale sign on the wheels, we were in stop-and-go traffic so we talked for a few minutes, exchanged complements about our car etc. He told me he was selling the wheels, and now that I've been thinking about it for a day I kinda want to make him an offer. They looked really sharp.

    dophineh :

    Dude, I got them installed but I had to hack up the OEM ones to make the crystal's fit.
    I took the wires and bulb holder and installed them in the new ones. I also had to shave the edges on the crystal's to get them to fit, out of the box they are slightly too large for the opening in the bumper.
    I'm sorry, I mean I could send you the case of the OEM fog you need for free if you want to pay shipping, but you will need to rig it up using parts form your lights.
    Let me know if you still want that fog.

    This site. Notice the title of this thread?

    "you on here?"

    He obviously is an enthusiast by the looks of his car, so I figured he may post on this board.

    Since he already blacked out his car, it would look awesome if he got black softlines.

    I just found that one last night. Makes me want to put my '01 corners back on, we'll see how I feel after the rims go on.
