GP thunder 8500k and MTec 4350k (angel)
 

I just installed GP thunder on the car, i like the blueish look of it better than the mtech, but it still doesn't quite match the xenon when they are on. Unfortunatly i had to ship my GP back to the seller because the two bulbs are not giving the same lightout put and colour. I did took some pic b4 i sent them back. Here they are:

which one do u guys prefer?

honestly, I prefer the stock AE's, but thats IMHO.
But the second pic looks excellent!!!!

damn i bougth the mtech and i am not satisfied with it...i think im buying the GP thunder 8500k...just wondering, why the angel eyes is not as bright as the e46 one?? i had an m3 with angel eyes and both ring is full of light..whereas the x5 only bright in the center ring, not the outside ring. as u can see from picture 2, it shows that the left side is brighter than the right side...any of u know why? same goes to e60 and e90..
here is my m3's angel eye..i want my x5 to be like that to =)http://img329.imageshack.us/img329/3518/dsc00581zh2.jpg

different design, the new bimmer use a normal bulb instead of those special for angel eye, the new design uses a reflective tube to light up the outer ring, which reduces the output, the new design also reduce the power to the bulb to 60% when xenon are on, thus it is impossible to match the xenon

I am getting the GP Thunders for my e92. I like the way they look with the xenons better than MTECs.

Can you give me the exact references for GP Thumder Bulbs?
Is it : GP Thunder H7 55W?

Thanks

for the angel eyes, you have to buy GP Thunder H8 i believe..coz i bought the MTECH H8...

So there is absolutely no way to match the angels to the xenon HID? What about the Daylight driving lights can they be matched?

BTW the poll should include "none" or "OEM"

while its not 100% match, i thought the GP Thunders came the closest. I like the new design compared to the old one, but i just wish that each ring had its own bulb. it looks weird when 1 ring is significantly brighter than the other.
