Alpine HIDs Installed

Another mod done before the week has ended

Alex@Alpine installed my HIDs, and I love them.
I had them on my e93, and since I honestly did not feel I would get another BMW, I sold them to a friend.
Thus, I needed to contact Alex again for another set.

This was his first time installing it on the Z4, so it took a bit more time than on the E9X models, but as always, he did a very clean install.

Let me know if any of the you guys are interested in them.

Here are a few quick pictures; again, I am a complete amateur and have no idea how to play with lighting etc, so the pictures do not do these lights justice


Thanks for looking

I like those, they look similar to the ones they have stock for the 2011 3 series. What brand? I go to los Angeles frequently therefore I may want mine done by Alex too. Pricing?

Actually yours are so bright that it probably required a ballast with connections to the battery terminal.

In real life are the high beam and low beam rings the same in brightness?

if you pay attention closely, even the OEM orange aren't the same

the difference between the inner and outer is very minimal in person (compare to in the pictures where they're pretty far apart)

you're more than welcome to see mine in person if you want and then judge for yourself :P
