I always loved your coupe. Too bad you hit the wall. I hope you can get her fixed up in due time. *wink*

Nice thread, Mike, I like the thread name *lol*

What did you use for the HIDs?

OEM E39 projectors and ballasts with 4500K DDM bulbs.

Although you've told me the story, it was cool to see all the pictures of the progress.

Good luck with the rebuild!

I think I'm a bit overdue for a minor update...

The Coupe was fixed in time for NALM 2010, and as of today, sits like this:

Yes, those are Performance 101 Clear/Red without surround; had them on for near a week now and still can't stop staring at the rear end.

These photos you've all seen in the NALM thread (and if you haven't go look through that thread, NOW!):

The things I've done to the car since the accident include:

Stainless Steel Brake-lines

94-95 Coupe trunk lid (pictured in second photo from above)

Coupe LS wheels (also know as GS wheels) along with Yokohama S. Drive tires.

Along with moldings and a new windshield.

The car went to Salt Lake City, took in the Circuit track and Drag abuse and drove back (a 10 hour 55 minute drive with only two, 3 minute stops for gas) with 0 issues. As of now, I have an Addco rear sway bar with those nifty custom bolts awaiting to be installed; aside from that, it'll serve as a daily driver until I find/purchase a 6-speed donor for it.

Those tails look great on a black car!

Wow, what a beautiful car. I am a fan of everything you've done to your car. Tasteful.
