yes you do have angel eyes. angel eyes are the rings of light that you could see around your xenons. turn on your park light i believe and you should see them.

Yes all LCI models have them and you can also turn them on while driving by going into the idrive system settings and switching on "Daytime Driving Lights"

+1

And other drivers can see you from farther off. The bad part about them looking cool is that, I've noticed, some drivers seem to get mesmerized by them and will actually veer INTO you; especially on the LCI since it has the amber eyebrows, too.

They also save your Xenons, as they will only be used when it's dark.
