Looks like the headlights are the stock 4300K HID bulbs, but the fogs are the 8000K. If both were 8000K, there would be no color difference betwenn the two. Also take a good look at the fog lights. There was a pretty lengthy tread on RF about just sticking in xennon bulbs in halogen housing (like what was done in the pics above). That post covered a lot about how if you do that, you would be blinding people. Looking at the picture again, it seems like that is true.
But the brakes look cool!

Although it would look better with the car lowered, I would definetely not do that in Taiwan. Although the roads are smooth in Taipei, once you get out of the city, then the road quality becomes a gamble. I believe it's due to the high volume of container trucks.
The car looks great by the way.
I was in Taiwan in April and went in to a dealer to see the car. I was riding my sisters 100cc motorino, so obviously, the salesman gave me the "don't touch if you don't buy" look. Well, I kind of understand, a 545i lists for $400K NT which is $121,000 US dollars. No wonder they gave me the cold shoulder.
I am so lucky that cars are so affordable in U.S., but not luckier than the guy who can really afford it in Taiwan.
