the one mod i am glad that didn't catch on with the e90 crew..

unlike the e46 forums, where they would change the angel eyes to a completely different color. For a little while on the e46 forums, people were putting green/red/purple bulbs to change the color of the angel eyes. wtf.

I'm assuming it's because those cars have been out for quite a while longer - hence more kids have them. Kids aren't running out in droves buying these cars so the average age is still up there.

They came with different plastic lenses so you can change color anytime you felt like it. Not like i had that red in there all the time since the blue/white showed up better.

Interesting enough, I dont have any pictures of them. Guess I didnt think anything of them at the time.

My car wasnt ricey.

I have seen an E60 M5 that I saw during ///Mfest at Eurotech motoring, he had red angel eyes. I thought I had a picture, but cant find it.

I think having any kind of red light coming from the front is considered illegal.. you are only allowed white and yelow and that blueish xenon. And in the rear, you can only have red and yellow and "white" only for reverse.
