Although I bit the bullet and but the AngeliBrights I voted "no" and $200. That's my honest opinion but I ended up giving in to desire over reasoning. Had to be among the first to upgrade my angel eyes instead of waiting for cheaper alternative.

I felt the same way about the price at first but then I saw the pictures and just took the plunge. They are on the pricey side but I don't expect to get anything for cheap for our cars. I love the look and I am quite happy with it. I think a fair price would be from around $200 but in the end i think my $350 went a long way in terms of looks.

I have no trouble dropping $350 though I voted "No" and "$250", the only trouble I'm having is white, blue, or red?

You get what you pay for. There is a reason that many of the top BMW-aftermarket product retailers have chosen our product to add to their catalogues; quality. (Dont worry it will not be for less then $349)
For example, just the aircraft grade aluminum alone which correctly dissipates the heat costs allot of $$ to CNC.
Trust me, if we could lower the price to the consumer, we would, but that would mean an inferior product, and we wont put our name on it.
We use all the highest-quality "best" components to build these. Result: the brightest solution possible, that is guaranteed to outlast your vehicle, with no issues.

I paid the $350 and the difference to the other products is well worth the $$$. Is it worth the $350?? I guess that is up to the consumer, but most of paid 50-66k for our cars and another $350 for a very nice upgrade is worth it to me! I guarantee most of us would have this upgrade done at time of purchase (if it was available) and if BMW said it was going to cost $350 it would be a drop in the bucket!
I go to weekly Euro car meets and last week an e39 M was there. He had seen my Angels in a previous meet and loved the look, however he opted to buy the PIAA kit from Bavarian Auto for I think $175.
When we compared our cars side by side it was not even close! The AngeliBright is a perfect color match and is much brighter. The PIAA looked dull and off color. Granted the PIAA looks better than OEM, the extra money is worth it to me.
