Jason sent over his lights originally to have us look at them due to a few issues he wasnt too excited about. He just picked up a new 2013 BMW M3 and wanted the lights to look as good as possible for his new car. A well known BMW angel eye service provider originally had done the paint job and the angel eye conversion, but it was done so poorly it needed to be fully redone. We supplied Jason with a brand new set of the proper fitting Umnitza Orion V2 LED Angel Eye rings and fully refinished all the black painted pieces inside the housing due to chips and flaking. The lenses were cleaned up and polished to bring the clarity back. Original sealant was removed and replaced with the OEM Koito butyl rubber sealant. Please let us know if you have any questions!

Richard dropped off the OEM BMW E90 LCI European headlights for a full makeover. First the factory housings were separates and all the perma-seal was removed and replaced with OEM Koito butyl rubber sealant. We replaced the original angel eye rings with the high output Umnitza Orion V4 LED angel eyes. Original projector was upgraded with the OEM STi 3" clear lenses for maximum performance. The LED turn signal cluster cover and both shrouds were painted Jet Black, and the top eye brow was painted in Titanium Silver for a nice contrast. Please let us know if you have any questions!

Thomas sent in his factory E46 ZKW produced lights for the Morimoto FXR bixenon projector conversion. We also installed new lenses to maximize the performance and restore the clarity. The gaskets were also replaced to ensure no condensation occurs. Please let us know if you have any questions!

I have an 07 328xi and want to do something different with my headlights. What are my options?

David dropped his 2009 BMW M3 off earlier this week for the Umnitza Orion V4 LED Angel Eye upgrade. While we had the lights opened, he decided to have us painted the housings and turn signal reflectors a gloss black, and tint the cornering lens cover. The shrouds were left factory chrome for an OEM+ look. The factory projectors were upgraded with OEM ZKW clear lenses, and tweaked for maximum performance. The factory sealant was removed and replaced with OEM Koito butyl rubber sealant for the best protection against condensation. Finally, he decided to go with brand new Osram CBI D1S bulbs to further increase the performance of the lighting system as well as the whiter color which matches the new angel eyes much better. If you have any questions, please let us know!

Some photos from my trip through our local state park here in Harriman NY

Wes just sent us some photos of the setup we made for him a few months back. The lights were fully blacked out and upgraded with the Umnitza V4 LED rings, Osram CBI Bulbs, and ZKW clear lenses. Enjoy!

I would like a similar set up to this one how much would it cost?

Al dropped off his 2013 BMW M3 for a quick make over on the headlights. He had the LUX LED angel eye upgrade, but was unsatisfied with the uniformity and the brightness of the product. We removed the original angel eyes and replaced with the Umnitza Orion V4 full LED angel eye rings. With standard DIY jobs, the angel eye wiring will be shown feeding out of the top of the ring. Some "experts" even go as far as painting the top bar to help blend within the blacked out headlights. We modify the angel eye ring to appear more like a stock ring, without a cross bar which retains somewhat of an aftermarket appearance. No silicone or epoxy is used on the face of the rings to prevent any rings loosening up or glue from discoloring. The final installation of the Umnitza LED angel eye ring leaves no cross bar or wiring that is shown, giving the ultimate OEM fit. The stock sealant was removed and fully replaced with the OEM Koito butyl rubber sealant was has the best bonding strength to prevent condensation from building up within the lights. The housing and turn signal reflector was painted Jet Black to provide more contrast within the headlights. The cornering lens was also tinted as requested. Please let us know if you have any questions!

Bump!

NocturnalEVO · 11-26-2013, 09:02 PM

In your experience which angel eye led kit provides the closest look to the OEM LCI E92 angel eyes?

Any kit available where u can't see the individual LED's?

I'm loving this setup!
This is pretty much exactly how I'd like to do mine.. except in black chrome vs the jet black.

Can you PM me a price for this exact setup/options installed? i can drop my car off.

thanks
