I wonder if this is possible, fitting a led strip lights on the bumper. Since M5 doesn't have fog light, it can be fitted around the intake. Any advice?

It's been done.

IMO it's pretty cheezy.

I know, but everyone's been moaning about how dim the led angel eyes, inc me. I'm certainly not thinking of spending $300 for a pair of led light and this may be the cheaper solution.
