Which LED AE gives the most OEM-like look?

bluewind · 01-31-2012, 10:05 AM

I've been searching but couldn't find an answer I am looking for... Asked in another thread but didn't get any response so posting a new thread.

With so many choices for LED AE, I am planning to get one that's most OEM-like (LCI E91, E92, etc.) for my 2011 E90 with Xenon.

Can someone please recommend which brand gives the most OEM-like look? Many of them just advertise that they are the brightest but I want the "right" brightness, that doesn't give out "oh that's aftermarket" too obviously.

Thanks in advance!

The point of installing LED's is to get away from the OEM look.

I just installed the Mtec H8's. Here is a comparison thread to help you.

Best Angels are as follows OSS, LS3>Lux, AiB>the rest.

Oss and the Bavarian LS3 are more expensive but are amazing, and since you're located in Cali Bav X is somewhat close (so cal)

Alpine HID 6000k gives u pure white, and a brightness that u cant beat without spending a fortune on OSS/LS3.

i recently wrote a review of my Alpine HID experience. so far so good

a warning: almost all kits (LED) will not be very even/bright unless u go HID (not too even, but bright) or spend a lot on OSS (my favorite!)
