David, pics can be any size you want if you host them somewhere else and just link to them from your post.

I thought about doing that as well but wasn't sure how it would look. I have silver paint left over from spraying my amber bulbs. Please post a daytime close up of it if you can.

I have euro clear headlights on my X5 already, but, I'm interested in modifying my oem headlights, perhaps you can give me some pointers as to what paint you used and how close to the euro clears you got!!!

Also, are your AEs oem or retrofitted?? The reason for my asking is that, if they are oem, I am looking for a way to set up my AEs the way you have yours, even if they don't fade in and out but at least come on when you turn the key. Is it possible that the AEs on the X3 are set up the same way on the X5 (assuming they're oem)??? Would it be possible you come up with a DIY write up? Or at least provide me with some instructions???
Thanks in advance for all your answers!!! And again, I'm not too much of an X3 fan, but I got say yours looks great. Very, very different to the rest. Keep it up, it looks grrrrreat!!!!!
