From what I read from the good fellows at e90post, the cosmo blue is not the dark blue that you see in the picture. It's more of a light tint.

I guess this might be premature but in your opinion are they significantly brighter for you while you drive? I dislike the GP thunders because they are so me what dim for me when I'm driving at night

Yup, as I expected. They're not the deep blue you would expect. Again, from what I read... once you turn on your HID, the halos will turn a bit yellowish and dimmer. Again... base on what I read.

But btw, ad78... they look reallllly good! Let us know how it looks at nighttime.

More stuff from reading... for the 3 series...as DRL, MTECs are brighter. When HIDs are on, GPs are brighter. I don't own either so you guys have to confirm it on the 1.
