This is really awesome mod!
How is the high beam light level without the high beam only with the xenon's?
Maybe you can guys help me with my confusion, I have my pre-LCI lights and I would like to have my AE bright as the new F10 cars.
Is there any kit you can recommend? There is so much options on the market, but it is really hard to believe all the advertisement as every product is brighter than the rest
Also is there any DIY for the headlights "glass" removal?
thx

madien , the bixenon high beam on the e60 is enough to cover a 2 story villa
dont waste ur money on any bulb replacement for ur angel eyes get the orion
the only thing will stop me from buying the F10 is those stupid angel eyes why its so ugly comparing to the new X5 and the new E92 , look at any F10 during the day and u will seeonly 2 light dots from the buttom of each ring

Ehssan...i need more info/how-to/DIY on removing and painting the headlight assemblies. i looks like painting the hi-beam reflector will be simple enough after sanding, priming and painting, but how pray-tell did you paint the surrounding portion of the Xenon bulbs?
im starting my install tonight and will be going strong all weekend long. any info you could shoot would definitely help. here is what i have planned:
-Orion V2 install
-White LED eyebrow mod
-DKNewYork Eyebrow custom paint mod to white and frosted (but with a slight twist in style/execution)
-Ehssan black-out look of turn signal and light assemblies <----this is the one i could use more info on
i already have the Nite-Shade paint for the black-out of the turn signals and side marker lights, but im not sure how im going to tackle painting the hi-beam and low beam assembly to match the look of Ehssan's method. thanks for the help and inspiration people!

I love this... I will def be the crash test dummy on the carbon wrapped guts as soon as I cut mine open!!! Just gotta decide on halos and find the balls to cut them open, or someone local to do is so I can wrap them

Also, something interesting to add. You mentioned the surrounding shroud for the xenon headlights' chrome wipes off... actually, it doesn't. I am guess that it did for you is because it's hot like hell out there and pretty much melted away the paint, lol.
