So my girlfriend has traded in her slk and decided to join the dark side and got herself a little f82 1 series coupe and is already asking me to do plenty of mods. First up will be projector angel eye headlights and tinted windows.

Nice job converting her.

Always see this shape as a good girls car. Just looks feminine.

it wasn't easy lol she wanted a Q5 first but after lots of trying to talk figures with her she settled with a good more realistic option in the end and works out cheaper than her slk in every way.

A lot slower than the SLK though as that was a 2.0 supercharged and this is only the 118D sadly.

depos with a HID kit will be your best option on a 1er. Don't forget to change the bulds in the rings to led before you install them, you have to take them back out to change them. Heres some on my old E87

Congrats to her. I like the 1er's. Good handling for sure. The lights you can get on eBay. Plenty of sellers on there.

My partner drives the exact same thing but twin turbo. I bought the lights from http://www.car-mod-shop.co.uk as they do forum discount with the HID kit. I think i paid around £230 all in. Check my instagram for some pics fitted.
