As far as I know, Alpina the Tuning company does not make any angel eye kits. "Alpina Angel Eyes" refers to the color of some ebay kits I've seen.

"8000K Alpina White (Crisp white with a tint of very light blue)"

Yeah, you're definitely confusing them for the Alpine angel eyes HID kit. Alpina the tuning/manufacturing company doesn't make their own angel eyes.

no, he really said alpina. the bimmer he showed me was a 7 series with the brand "alpina" labeled on the back and he said the brand installed for the angel eyes was "alpina" and that it was the only one here in the bay area.

hmm....

I hope its Alpina for your sake. I bought a set of Alpine angel eyes that don't work and no one at Alpine will return my emails. They are warrantied for 2 years but what good is that if they just ignore you. It seems like a pretty common problem with the ballast too.

Thanks for the heads-up, I've been considering buying a set.
