Looks good! It was funny the parts guy at the dealership said there was no way the new headlights would fit the pre-LCI cars.

No problem fitting at all, they were simply plug and play, and the bulbs are the same(H7's).

The bulbs are not the same, the Racing Dash version will not fit.

Check out the link below.

Nice! I have an '08 328i 4Dr and want to change my headlights too. How much was the damage? How long did it take to put it on?

Thanks!

Not too much damage, just drop Sui and email and he will quote you a good price. It only took me about 1 hour, but I am use to removing my bumper and lights so it's not big deal to me. I did take my time this go around so I didn't scratch anything.

Really easy to do.

Tagg,
Any errors?
I have exactly the same car and planning on installing the US LCI Halogen instead of Euro.
And have you found out about the bulb/led that will make the halo rings white and bright?
Does the halo rings just use a H7 bulb?

Thanks.
