Would like to see pics with the fogs...

Also, what are you guys using for a matching turn signal bulb in the headlights for that matching xenon look all up front for the E70?

Thanx
This is what I have read too, that is why I went with the 7500k versus the 850k. I wanted it to be a bit brighter...more yellow=brighter.

Someone mentioned the LUX2.0 for $250...I thought about it, but if I am going to pay that much, one of the e90 members makes a custom HID Kit that is even brighter than the LUX LED kit. If I was going to sepnd the $$ I would go with the HID setup. Right now the GP thunders work fine. None of the kits actually help you see any better so the only reason to change bulbs is so OTHER people see what you have done...

PS I will shoot pics of the fogs tomorrow.
