This is crazy. My car is in almost the exact same shape. Mine an auto 164 L though.
Have you gotten the roof painted yet? how much did that run you? Are you planning on getting the windows tinted?

Welcome to the board, Will! I haven't done much with the paint yet, but hopefully that will come soon as well as the window tinting...Start up a new thread with your car. Would like to see the process!
Cheers

UPDATE:
NEW Oil Change with 20w 50 Exxon. Also Put an additive that stops the smoking. It seems to be working well.
EURO Headlights now installed with bright white Silverstar bulbs. Installation was simple, thanks to Steve's instructions. Ran me about $300. I got one new lamp off ebay germany and one used lamp off ebay UK. If you look around enough, you can find them for a good price
Pictures should come soon! |

Shhhhh! No one's supposed to know!! The only thing about the rear one is the year is 98 on that and I don't think Alfa made the 164 in 98, so hush! Only us Irish can know the difference, I suppose. Also, the rear plate is a Dublin reg.

Us Micks stay together isn't that right JD 
I only noticed the difference by the last number being different from the front plate.
Have you confused a lot of cops with the front Irish plate and got away with running red lights lol???

Lights!
Here are some bad pics of the euro lights. Yes, I know the trim color is different, but they'll stay that way until I get the car painted.
I can't believe the difference they make! Not to mention, they look way better than the old ones that were pitted and glued.
I'll post more daytime pics. |

Cool plates, if it was not for the blue plates on my GTV6 I would be tempted to create a custom Irish set like I did for my other car...
Any advice on upgrading the lights on a GTV6? After reading about the hassle of inserting replacements, it has kind of put me off.
...and yes Cork is the best part of Ireland!

As far as lights, put some silverstars in your current set up and wire up a set of hella 550 or 500 series fog beams, then position them where you need more light.
Cheers!
PS- Dublin and maybe Wicklow are the best parts of Ireland!
