The blending I think has to do more with the angle and the bright sun in the background when I took them. Everytime I saw a 5 series you could barely tell the angel eyes were on from a distance at night. The xenon's overpower them in either case. I'll take some night shots this next night if I remember. At dawn or dusk I love driving with just the eyes on, now they really do stand out and look awesome!

Was it worth 300+ bucks? Probably not, but then again, what mod is acctually worth it? It's just cool...

Lomag, it seems like your driver's side eyebrow is clear but the passenger side eyebrow is amber...?

Could this be the effect of the Angelbright if so

I'm pretty sure the sun glare is to blame.

I just got an email from Jlevi and stated that the Unitza version of the angel eyes will be brighter than ever and will consist of a plug and play set up, i think i will wait being that it will be 199 USD or so.
