I have been reading the threads for a couple of hours now trying to learn about Angel Eyes, Invisibulbs, etc. So, I have a 2006 550i (pre-LCI) with Xenons. What should I be purchasing to upgrade the looks to a clean white look?

I recommend at least upgrading your turn signal bulbs and low beam xenon bulbs to a more pure white.
For the turn signals, you can go with either our LED V2 Turn Signal Bulbs or Solaris Invisibulbs which are both available in amber or xenon white. They get rid of the orange reflection in the housing when off and blink in either amber or xenon white depending on the look you prefer.
For your xenons, I recommend upgrading the factory 4300k bulbs with a set of our D2S Replacement Bulbs in 6000k which is a pure white light output.

Yeah, and what are Angel Eyes anyway? Do I have them on my 2006 530xit? I'd also like to know how to make the eyebrow match

Thanks for the suggestions. Just a few questions:
1. Solaris-Invisibulbs: I think I would order 7507 for the turn signals, but what number for the side markers?
2. Angel Eyes: If I order DS2 Xenon replacement bulbs, will that provide the same result as your MyCarr Angel Eyes?
3. What about fog lights to match?
Thanks!
