Damn Ron, so you didn't like my AE's For argument sake, mine were not set-up in the conventional BMW style.

^^ I agree with Ron about certain cars having signature looks. But the flip side is that new creations and styles can come into play by modifying the original design i.e. demon eyes (which I think look great) and are just a variation to the angel eye and does not look like it belongs on a BMW...I still say if you think it looks good and you want to make your car stand out, then do it...

A little off topic but take it a step further, awhile ago only BMWs and other higher end cars had HIDs.... now many regular cars have them...so is that to say every other type of car shouldn't have HIDs in them? Not directed at Ron, but thoughts anyone?

HIDs is a different story than angel eyes. HIDs actually IMPROVE visibility, thus have an actual function in terms of utilization. Angel eyes serve NO utility function, it is purely an upgrade from a design standpoint, it just so happens that BMW decided to use lights as the basis of their signature design.

If it was me, I wouldn't get the full angel eyes, but the ones that go half way. I dunno, it kinda follows the headlight housing itself and it looks pretty sick.

So are you going to answer my question, or are you afraid to speak the truth to the big black guy?

the fact that everyone is interested in them says that BMW has a winner with the design. and I agree about the demon eyes, there was one image I saw in a drive way that just looked down right sick... (looking for the image now)[/quote]



ya that's G's car..er..was his car...

agreed, i think its just a mod like anything else, its what you do to compliment it as well. But to each their own.

still looking for that demon eyes pic i saw earlier

Both of you grow up. I will not be happy if I have to come back in here to clean this up.
