My Ride: 520d Black & SL350
I happened to look at the reflection of my "Angel eyes" in some glass doors as I made to leave work.
Together with the amber "Eyebrows" they do look good.
But they don't look like the eyes of an angel. They look a bit, well, menacing really.
So why are they called Angel Eyes and not something like Evil Eyes?

I heard that they were originally going to call them "Devil's Bollocks" but BMW marketing were not too keen on that idea.

My Ride: 2008 BMW 550i Sport
Carbon Black Metallic/Cream Beige
Manny tranny and other stuff
Recently gone, but never forgotten:
2005 Ford Mustang GT (hence the name)
Torch Red/Crimson
Manny tranny and every option available for that year
2002 Chrysler 300M Special
Brilliant Black/Light Taupe/Dark Slate
Autostick and goo-gobs of neat features that I will sorely miss
Hmm... If I knew what a "bollocks" was, I might get a chuckle out of that, too.
