A LOT of the reviews claim there is a way to see if they are legit (or fake) using Osram website, and guys are claiming they are legit.

So is it a 2 pack, should I nab them ??

Thanks, I think you're right.
I have Prime and ordered these for only $132 bucks.
Says they won't arrive til May 11th, but I'm hoping they are much earlier than that. I'll update the thread when they arrive. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Yes most things on Amazon are arriving much earlier then the posted date.

Check when you receive them. I would think though that even this might not be 100% bullet proof. Why not just make batches with legit numbers?

Finally was up getting stuff out of storage and pulled out the boxes. I am running the 66140 CBI Osram bulbs. As I said before, the color is great except for snowy conditions, and maybe fog...
Having a tint on the headlights is an entirely different factor there, and imo just straight unsafe. If you are looking for a more distinctive headlight look, I would say clear the lenses again, and take the headlight apart and black out some of the chrome inside, and maybe add like a "demon eye" look inside of the projector. More work, but it won't change the light output, and is more distinct.

There is nothing "unsafe" about having tint on my headlight lenses
(you're killing me bro)
I installed the the new CBB bulbs and I am very satisfied.
They are very bright and perfectly match my LUX angel eyes perfectly.

Thanks for all the great feedback from everyone, hopefully this thread will help others.
