If you're referring to the headlamps in our other thread:



No work was performed on the assembly, this is how the 00-03 headlamps will be offered as from us. Replacing the OEM pitted lenses is an added bonus for those with higher mileage.

This is a quick and easy upgrade for those that are already equipped with HID. Halogen users will need a HID kit (which we also offer) which is not much more.

For facelifted e53s, AiBs are the way to go.

got the AiB about 6months ago, they aren't "blinding" bright lights, but compared to the dim dingy yellow of the oem color and output, worth the $$$ imo, and Tom was cool enough to flash the computer on the e35 to make the windows roll up with the key fob. That and the AiB's makes people
