Found that my plug wires are the originals from 88 and are starting to deteriorate. They're all rusty inside and the one I changed (you could see big cracks in the rubber) broke in half upon trying to take it off lol the rear spark plugs may also be original, not sure yet as I've been avoiding them.
Anyone want 5 and 2 half's original Beretta spark plug wires? lol
I don't know how the hell this car runs so strong (other than the trans) since the car appears to have almost zero maintenance done to it in its life up until I got it.

I have glass E36 headlights with oem Audi RS6 bi-xenon projectors mounted in them waiting for me to have time to install them. I did the conversion myself with brackets I designed and laser cut. It wasn't a cheap project.

I don't think that was his point... He means he is interested in buying the parts to do the same thing as you did to his Euro headlights possibly.
On topic...
Bought more parts for it yesterday...

Actually... I would love to have someone else make these headlights for me so I can simply install them.
I'm not looking to buy the set you have in your car BlueGTZ! But I guess you're not interested in making more.

It is time consuming to get the projectors mounted and aimed correctly within the housing, they have to be perfect rotationally or the cutoff will be crooked and look bad. I have about a weeks time in them between design and assembly not to mention about 4-500$ just in parts and I still have to build a wiring harness. It's just not something I have time to do again. Besides I want something unique.
