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
The best way to be sure is to look at the existing bulbs but from my experience LCI cars with Mtech factory bumpers have H8 and 9006. Cars without Mtech might have H8 for both bulbs

My Ride: 2009 535i - Stock...For Now 1989 Chevrolet Truck - Too Many Mods to List

Both were H8's on my 2009. GP's look really good. For the money you can't go wrong. I installed a GP in one headlight and Trinity's 6w LED kit in the other to compare on mine. GP's were brighter, but the 6w's were whiter and matched the xenon lights better. Ended up keeping the 6w's in the headlights and installed the GP's in the fogs.

For the License Plate and other interior lights go with Led"s. The inner highs I haven't touched because I have disabled them they only come on when in reverse or on turns which I like to be able to differentiate between them and the head lights!

I buy most of my stuff from JLevi but you can buy the interior LED kit from Trinity http://www.trinityautosport.com/piece-interior-lighting-p-144.html?osCsid=d5729c0b51de423fbc3e8b8f23d34ad3>
