My new LED Angel Eyes and black kidneys :)
Okay... here's a picture with a couple new mods.
Getting the plastic grid/lattice, xxxxxxxxxx thing under the license plate (have no idea what it's called) painted black and installed next weekend and then I'm done. This pic shows my windows after Stealth Auto took off the shitty tint I had done a few weeks ago. I had the tint redone today too. The guy (Bernie) took his time and did a great job. I'll take final pics of all mods next week. I'm done after that. Thanks everybody for all the advice! Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us[/IMG]

Which LEDS are these. They are not too visible in daylight apparently.

Thanks! It was Johnson film and because of california law, I did medium on the front driver and front passenger and dark everywhere else. Not sure of the % because they have light, med, dark as options. Post more pics tomorrow of the tint. Appreciate it!

Good suggestion but I'm a traditionalist when it comes to the emblems

These are the older style http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/E92-E...ht_7817wt_1167 These are the newer style http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/E90-E...Q5fAccessories Do you remember what yours looked like, because if the newer style butterfly works better to light the outers, I would give it a shot - the older style when I tried them wasn't great in my book and I took them out and put in GP Thunders.

Sometimes I think they have a hand in the aftermarket industry. Imagine how much money BMW owners have spent in the last few years on all the different H8 bulbs !!

I think they're pretty bright right? Again I have an E70 so not sure the mega bright ones would work with my car. Uploaded with ImageShack.us |

Yeah. Most of the LEDS look pretty good at night. I like the pics the other guy just posted of the Black Sapphire truck. Not sure what kind he has.

Hey MissFortune can you tell me the info for your tint guy? I'm in Orange County and thinking about having mine re-done on the rear window.
