Looks great! Are they both H8 bulbs? I see you have the Mtech bumper. Do you know if the regular LCI bumper fogs are also H8? I've seen they can be H8 or 9006?

Is this a typo, or do you have two different color temps?
Looks GREAT! I will be doing this soon for sure
I also have an 08 (535i). Do I just need to look at which bulbs are in there

No its not....They are 2 different color temps..... Brightness is measures by Luminance levels which is almost identical between the 2 bulbs. The only difference between the 2 is that the 5800 has a slight blueish tint to it but hardly noticeable.
