Zeinheiger's Aurion Sportivo '08

[Zeinheiger]

No update yet... But I took a photo... That counts right?

Just trying to show the grille a bit better

Maybe someone this Sunday has a decent DSLR camera on the VIC Cruise the Bendigo...

I sure hope so... iPhone doesn't work as well as I want it to for pics and my Olympus is outdated and takes horrible photos

Yeh in my book a photo is still an update Don't mind the plate, maybe if it was slimline Loving the grill though, but it still needs a tint, I can see all the way through her lol Looks good mate :D

True that about tint... I've got a bloke coming to look at the bmw tomorrow, he's heading over all the way from gippsland to see it, hopefully he buys it on the spot.... Then i can get coilovers, rims, exhaust and tint

I told him i'll settle for 5k firm as the car needs some work, the price is non negotiable...

Too bad I couldn't have sold it last week or something, could of had a nice reputable ride by now

Changed the gear selector light to a white LED... Will probably change it to blue eventually though, also changed the cigarette lighter ring/Ash tray light...

The P R N D S +/- globe will be next... These are T5 bulbs for anyone interested in doing the same and the job itself is extremely easy

As seen in my epic failure DIY

Nice :) Looks very cool Although from the pic it looks like you installed a blue LED. I think I may have to copy what your doing with your interior.....if I haven't already

[Zeinheiger]

Yeah it's definitely white, my iPhone makes it look blue for some reason, shame I can't show you tomorrow as it's impossible to see in the day, oh well I just ordered blue t5's off eBay today, I'll be changing the lights for the ashtray, this, the p r d n light and the electric window "auto" light then that should be the interior lighting finished, then I can work on getting zr6 leather seats... I'll ninja them out of nathans car when he isn't looking

[Zeinheiger]

Reminds me, I should wash it today to have it sparkling by tomorrow

Personally I wouldn't bother with the Leather ZR6 seats, they look good, and that's about it.

They're hard, they're flimsy, nuff said.

Well Nath, if you really think like that... I'd be happy to swap :P

I'll have to sit in them to decide

Haha.

No I didn't say i'd swap them. I couldn't live without electric seats etc. It's just the drivers side seems to be a bit shoddy as of late, probably doesn't help i'm a big lad. :P

I love the leather seats in my ZR6. That said the leather quality is OEM which sadly means it's a tad lacking however I'd take them over cloth seats anyday.

[Zeinheiger]

Might look at getting custom ones made up... I'm liking the idea of the black leather with a bit of blue inserts

[Tash]

Looking good Dale, love this colour Aurion :D Gotta get some piccies all together. Exciting stuff, there'll be FOUR Aurion's tomorrow, the most ever!! And I'll just put the Camry in there too and hope no one notices

Best of luck with the BMW sale too, I hope its off your hands soon :) (because then the Aurion gets some TLC!)

Edit: Dantrim here in Bendigo are excellent upholsterers - if I had the cash sitting around I'd go get my interior retrimmed by them in an instant.

[Zeinheiger]

Interior is not one of my priorities just quite yet... I'm gonna focus on the exterior look, with coilovers, tint and rims first, then the fiddly bits will all come in due time

More than fair enough :) Can't wait to see what rims you choose :D

[Zeinheiger]

Reece is selling his rims and If I sell the bmw, I'm getting his 19"s if he hasn't sold them by then

But if I get these I plan to get the chrome lip painted in blue to match the cars colour... I'll do a quick photoshop of it actually.. Brb

[Zeinheiger]

And if i get the lip painted in blue metallic

[Tash]

Diggin it with the blue lip - very nice :D

[benji4138]

Holy crap With the silver lip they just look average and nothing to write home about, but as soon as you make it a blue lip AMAZING :D Brilliant!!!! You gotta get these now

[Zeinheiger]

Well didn't sell the other car today, so that puts any modding further back on my calender

But yes I will get them done with a blue lip

[Zeinheiger]

Also I should mention, I decided on a name for her...

"Alexia"

Named after my favourite female singer B)

[private number]

wow 100% get the lips painted blue mate. looks really good!

[benji4138]

Wow, awesome name :) Hmm.......I wonder who in the music world is named Alexia..........Well it shouldn't take a genius to figure out where Abby got her name from

Shame about the sale :( Ah well, just means that your on a slow boat to China like most of us in terms of modding and money for the moment
