Best classy Bimmer AEs for AW e90?

Any headlights on ebay or from vendors that look like stock lci? Lol obviously don't point me to a stock lci ones - too expensive
Also, do you think round AEs are better or M4 style ones? I know modern bimmers come with new shape AEs, but do you think they look good on e90 front?

I like those CCFL headlights actually, couple questions tho:
1. Am I right that CCFL give more even and white halos compared to some other aftermarket LED halo rings that are brighter, but have purple-ish or blue-ish hue making it look ricey?
2. Do you guys have photos of your lights on real cars (customers or yours)?
3. What is the expected lifespan of those CCFL lights - will they burn up fast?
4. Any issues with water getting into the housing? Are they factory sealed?
5. Are CCFL halos visible in daylight - like LED is for example?
Thank you

Bro search for DTM halo e90 because there are some really long threads which discuss a lot of your questions in depth.

You'll find answers and photos that you seek too.
