my lonely fog light isnt so lonely anymore - United Bimmer Community

**brien4787** · 10-26-2005, 11:08 PM

So, after ruining one of my fog lights, and keeping it with just with 1 fog light for a while, my step dad decided to go to the BMW dealer that he deals with and just get one for me...

i just got home and he had it for me, but i have no time to put it on..
the thing is.. it is a little bit different because i guess they are making better ones now.. it is heavier and feels like its made of glass over the light plastic.
think it will be brighter with it being newer, and a bit different, or about the same?
maybe i need to get the other fog light too

and then maybe some predator36 headlights (angel eye ones)... i have been soooo close to buying them... even though i have been looking for a 325 so long, i still just want thme.. haha damn it

Yea dude E36 headlights are now made of glass. That kinda why u see so many of them cracked and chipped and broken and stuff. The glass ones light up the same as the plastic ones so dont worry bout it.

you mean fogs? i don't know my Depo fogs are glass and I am using the same bulbs as what was in my stock plastic fogs, and the new ones are a lot brighter.

hmm, maybe i might have to order another foggy
80 bucks = (
at least its better than the 130 the dealer usually charges

Yea, the old plastic ones were known to crack under extreme weather conditions, they actually used to replace broken ones for free under warranty.

I bought a pair of Hella Fogs for $80. They were bright as hell before a deer hit my car!

I just bought ZKW fog lights from BMW.. yeah, rip off place, but my step dad went in and go them at cost... like 80 bucks each.

vs the like... 130 each?

the title of this thread sound slike a Childrens Book title...

The little foglight that could pt2

I think the Foglight would have a voice over done by Chris Rock and he'll be all ghetto and shit..and he'd be on a mission to find the other foglight (she will be voiced over by Halle berry)

then they'll make fog light love...but not before they get jacked by some Depo Crystal Fogs and dissed by some Euro clears...

EDIT (a day later) yo!!!! did i wirte this...I got to stop smoking weed!

**brien4787** · 11-07-2005, 05:15 AM

I think deer + front of a car = foglights no good.

**c1apton** · 11-07-2005, 12:07 PM

Deer + Front End = Grilled Venison

Well if u take a look at the pic the way the deer hit it doesnt look like the fogs suffered any damage.

**BMW328is** · 11-07-2005, 03:22 PM

One came off the car and I didn't look for it. The other was cracked all over.

In the insurace estimate they paid $99 each for the ZKW replacements.
