Aftermarket xenon or front splitter

Hey guys, here's my 06' 320i e90. Any suggestions for where to buy the most sensible xenons or a gloss black or cf front splitter?

3D front lip looks best for the pre-lci mtech and the best xenons are OEM. Anything else just doesn't look as high quality.

Don't know if I can bring myself to spend 1k on xenons. Although they are the biggest factor in my mod plans!

On the other hand. I'm going to get my wheels re sprayed. Are you in the know about colours (I'm thinking a very white coloured silver)

I thought your license plate said "old hag"

Then i realized that that was a "Q" on the side not an "O"

Yeah you're right, who am I kidding.

But anywho, if you type in "e90 headlight projector" into ebay you'll find plenty of aftermarket ones.

What about splitters instead of the lip? I think it looks less "add on" and cheaper
