My 2012 X6 5.0 Black/Black/Black

Hasn't been washed yet, and rain is in the forecast for the next 7 days, so I figured I'd post some quick pics. Just got her back from the body shop that did the wheels. Sorry for the hazy pics. I tried to park in every possible position but the glare was unavoidable.

Looks great. Mine is in for the same treatments. I was going to leave the front and rear plates grey to match my running boards. I don't know now! Yours looks great painted.

What piaa angel eyes bulbs are those? Any part #?

Thanks!!

This is the bulb and where I purchased it from. If you google search for cargym.com and coupon code you'll find a 10% off coupon you can use.

No...it's one pair. IMO, They are amazing and worth the money if you wan LEDs. I also had RDash before in my X5 and the PIAA blow those away. These are bright even in daylight.

Why? It's one bulb per side. Only need 2 bulbs. So you only need to order one pair, which is how they are sold.

You serious these PIAA can outshine the RDash? I notice that there are 3 little canbus attached to the wire, can all of them fit nicely inside the headlight? How its perform under bright day light? Care to share some pictures here? I'm using PIAA also..but it is not as bright as yours..

Actually there were no canbus at all. Wires didnt look like picture. The wires went straight from bulb to harness. And yes...far brighter than Rdash.
