That looks awesome... Don't bash me for saying this but I really like the way the Audi's look with the LED's up front... Curious to see if anyone has this option as well.

Some pictures of this BMW DRL LED kit. Personally I do not like them. I think these ONLY belong on Audi as angle eyes ONLY belong on BMW.

I have an M5 replica on my street that has these. Worse still the guy installed these slanting on the bumper brake air ducts.

hmmm, I'm not sure I'm totally against this idea. I can't seem to find it on the bmw.ca site nor can I find any part numbers?

so those will work on my car? The only reason I'm interested in because I really hate the DRL lights right now in that they use the flash to pass lights. wonder what the cost is?

So Canadian dealer is saying list price at $245 without install. I wonder how involved the install is and whether programming is needed?
