Angel eyes--new here help me out!

Whitevdub · 08-01-2010, 09:32 PM

So I ordered my Alpine White e90 lci m-sport with chestnut leather the other day and it should be here in a month and a half. I've just been browsing around to get more info about which angel eyes to go with so I can stock up on parts asap. If you guys can help me out thatd be awesome:

Narrowed it down to

-LUX 5.0 H8 LED
-GP Thunder 8500k
-Angelibright
-or an HID bulb (6000k) not sure which one

-I want something that really sets the alpine white off

Anyone have any opinions? i've searched the forum but I wanted to make a thread of my own so I can just keep going back to it and check out all the opinions...thanks guys

i have some GP thunder 8500k myself and am not pleased with how poorly they show during the day.

Lux. Or if you want to spend the money, OSS.

Lux H8 if you want a simple LED plug and play solution.

Andy M · 08-02-2010, 03:18 AM

+1 for Lux.

Gp Thunders and MTEC's are both error free

Kensta335 · 08-02-2010, 05:08 PM

OSS. Do it right the first time.

I tried out GP Thunders, Mtec, RD, LUX (still using LUX). From all the money I spent, could've had OSS with a little bit more $$$.

To really make up your mind I suggest you meet up with other bimmerpost members in your area with aftermarket angel eyes and decide from there.

OSS looks like the best solution but maybe not the best for your budget. I guess you have to weigh how much you are willing to spend and then pick. Lux is 2nd to OSS id say though.

well im definitely not going oss although they look completely sick...someone in my area has gp thunder 8500k bulbs on an alpine white e90 m3 sedan and it looks pretty damn good actually hmm..but the lux 5.0 h8 seems like a good choice too
