So on my way home on 4th of july.
I drove with just my HID fogs and angel eyes on.... and then switched between my low beams on with them and noticed absolutly no difference.
I said to my self.... well if I can't see **** at night what good are these headlights?
So I contacted Umnitza and ordered the projectors with 6k HIDs.
I will be doing the install sometime this week.
pictures up soon!
Everything in total shipped was $387 btw if anyone would like to know.
$87 more then DDMtuning.
But at least with Umnitza you have a very good warranty.
Great support and the fact that if you already have angel eyes from them ( like I do ).
You'll know for a fact they'll fit right and everything is under warranty by them
Yeah
next will be VMR 714 rims with H&R lowering springs and a M3 front lip like yours.
Then GTR hood then VF supercharger.
I decided the M3 hunt is taking to long and might as well fully mod my car in the mean time.
Nice Malibu I am in the market for Angel eyes. So these projectors you purchased are they the whole headlight assembly? I am trying to decide whether to just get Angel Eyes with new lenses or the whole assembly since my lenses are fairly cloudy.
These include everything.
Housing, lenses, ballasts for the HID kit, bulbs, nuts bolts all that good stuff.
I first started it off with just the angel eyes. Which were Orion V2s.
I was VERY happy with them and still are.
But After I recently put on a M3 front with HID fogs. My current hologen housing just doesn't fit the front of the car.. doesn't look right....
I also couldn't see very well at night either.
So that's what made me decided on these. And the help of Jryguyi lol.
yeah Im about to upgrade my cracked lenses...So im going to go with the DDM full kit that comes with Projectors, angel eyes, HID kit etc. But I have NO idea as to what there going to look like seeing as their is only one photo on their site...and there are options for the Angel eyes, Bulb color, and HID options...which I have noooo Idea about. 6000K is the highest u can go in Canada without getting a ticket from the pigs.

They sure are an improvement, but almost all aftermarket projectors are designed for halogen bulbs (not as much wide angle as the OEMs, but they're ok). OEM color is 4300K by the way, light output is better with the 4300Ks than the 6000Ks.
oh and I don't think thats enough... I don't even think my car is aggressive enough. In my opinion you really need side skirts and rear to pull off that hood. Because if not then the front view of your car looks like a totaly different car than the rear, and it should all flow together/not be two cars.

I agree with the flowing part.
But I have a 328i so my rear is actualy already not to bad at all.
Much better then a 325i.
And your car is without a doubt perfect for a GTR vented hood.
Get one! lol.

Agree with the springs part for Mafia. As far as the GTR hood, I think if you want one, get one. I think they look better though on non-black cars. Reason being that the vents stand out more when the hood is painted AW for example and the black grilles get to show more.
Great! I'm ordering my DDM full kit right now. Not sure which angel eye and HID kit option I should go with on the right hand option selection. Looking forward to the pics!
Conz.
I recommend getting Umnitza ones instead.
There on sale for the same price as ddmtuning.
And Umnitza has better quality and much better customer service.
ddm may turn out to be much cheaper after tax/shipping.
But the extra $$ is worth it for quality and customer service AND a good warranty in my opinion.
Im checking out the umnitza ones right now and they seem to be better quality then the DDM's. Now I see that below the picture there are options (Xenon, Bulbs, Angel Eyes) Is that 249$ price not including these options? Because once I add the options im look well over 500$ ( selected OEM Xenon D2S, Bulbs Predator xenix, And orion V2s= 249$+ 200$ worth of options?) Otherwise I get no Xenons and No angel eyes, but black housings for 249$?
Yeah sadly that stuff is not included like ddmtuning is.
I actually had them remove the angel eyes so I didn't have to pay an extra $100 for them.
And I asked for the xenons but with no resistors. so instead of $100 I payed $65 for that.
