So you are saying get four than is okay? Seems like the Xenon and Halo are two different system using two different types of bulb for the AE?

I thought they were the same for both... I even thought they're suppose to be easier to install on non-xenon cars...

Thanks for the tip!
Just checked with BMW and the center console in aluminum is $1800, takes 2 weeks. For AC Carbon is $18,000 for that piece!! For the whole interior it's around $28,000

So is 150 lbs feather light? 
That's not feather light, but I still wouldn't recommend a 2 stroke especially when you don't have much experience in riding a 2 wheeler.

Yes, I put my autopass behind my rear vision mirror. Damn the ding looks ugly!
But that freakin piece of alu is damn expensive. Could it be like a M5 pricing thing, let's try to call them to quote the alu for the regular E60 maybe will be cheaper.

Of course of course, one being Xenon the other being Halo. The main thing is Xenon needs a seperate power unit and it needs programming while Xenon doesn't, way simple. But I was thinking that the AE should be the same for both system. But apparently is more than that.
