I'd buy a new set of 6k headlight bulbs from the the guy just so they match a little better. HID Bulbs change color over time, hard to match up perfectly.

I think factory is about 4.5k

our OEM headlight is 4300K. I do not recommend the ebay fogs. It will flicker and can also cause error messages. I see that they include the error cancelling cables too. Big no-no! These ballasts arent even digital. I can get you a set of these HID kits for $60 but will you put that on your BMW??

I have DDM's installed on my car with no issue's with their error cancellors or flickering. Its all a matter of preference really and how much you want to spend. However, I wouldn't go with a brand I can't trust no matter what the cost is.
