E92 Angel Eyes..What are my options???
I've been searching to get angel eyes for my E92 for the longest time. I really like the PIAA ones but it seems like they only have it for the E90 back a while ago.
Recently I've heard PIAA made one for the E92, unfortunately I had never be able to seek for much information regarding it. What angel eyes you guys use for all these E92s. It'll be great if someone can let me know what kind of options I have or if anyone knows more about the PIAA ones that will be great help as well! Thank in advance guys!

Get the GP Thunders for now.
Then wait and see what Duke has got in store with his LEDs. www.dukedynamics.com |

Do GP's give off enough light? I thought I'd read some people complaining during day that they aren't as bright as stock. What do you recommend for a closer to stock light temp?

White light will always get washed out in the daylight...unless it is really bright. At equivalent brightness, stock halogen (yellow) lighting on the E92 will always be more visible. Which is why the GP Thunders don't look as bright during the day... |

i installed a pair of GP Thunder 7500k and was very disappointed. the inner ring is not as bright as stock, but has a nice white/blue look to it. BUT the outer ring is almost invisible, it was hard to tell if it was even on in the day time. stick with the stock halogens. if you wanna give the GP Thunders a try send me a PM.

e92 angel light design is poor, and the light tube to send light to the outer ring will never be good enough! BMW should take note from Audi (A5, RS8, etc.) and install a ring of LEDs for both angel eyes. if this is part of e90/92 refresh i would have to retrofit or trade in my car!!

Why didn't anyone consider getting stock temperature bulbs of 4300K? Like the ones J levi SW sells? I'm referring to THESE BULBS.
Same price as GP's too... they would've been my first pick, but everyone seems to talk about GP's! . . Quote:
