What sold me was the 1 year warranty, good customer service, and advancements in new technology. Your bulbs seem to be the brightest on the market right now and that is what I was looking for. The closest thing to a 2012+ OEM LCI.
The YouTube video of the 160's looked stellar. I hope the x5 can mimic that pure white look with the outer ring being so well lit up.
Very anxious to receive them. I already got my tracking info within minutes of purchase last night.
I will post pictures once they are installed. I'm taking out GP Thunder 8500K. I only had them in for a few weeks. The sunlight washed them out completely and once I turned on my headlights they turned yellow. For $15 you get what you pay for...

Looking forward to your impressions. If you can take a picture comparing them to the GP Thunder bulbs as well. Just remember to take the picture from 20+ feet away to get an accurate view of them

If you want to switch to the LUX H8 160's you can do that and we have a 60 day return policy on the lights. Just sent me a e-mail
sales@LuxAngelEyes.com and i can get you the information needed if you want.
As for the outer ring, thats just the design of the headlight itself an that cant be changed. When you look at the outer ring up close you will see that there are grooves in the back, and when you look at it from an angle the grooves disappear. These grooves are what reflect the light outwards, so if you cant see the grooves you can see the light. Here's a picture of a stock style headlight so you can see what i'm referring to.
Also - we just removed the 2 pictures from earlier since they really do not do a accurate job of how they look in person
