PIAA vs Predator Ice pics?

I haven't been able to find side-by-side comparison pictures of PIAA angels vs Predator Ice. Can anyone help with this?

I'm running PIAAs now and wondering how much more bright the 3W and perhaps the 5W Predator Ice are.

Thanks!

Haven't seen any side by side pics yet.

And the 5w Predator ICE isn't out yet.

not too many people here have the predator ice yet, so good luck finding comparison pics. I would like to see a comparison of the 4-5 different brand angel eye products out there currently.

With good white balance setting on camera, people should try it more times to get it right because most of them look cheap blue and then the owners say that it isnt blue at all like on the photo. The best color will be the one that new Audi A4 has on front LEDs...

Here's the link to Remmib's thread- Predator Ice

This should give you a pretty good idea of how they compare to the PIAA (since you already have them on your car).

I think Remmib will agree that the 3W is perfect for the car as the 5W version might be over doing it. It might overpower the rest of your headlights.

Never seen anything other than Predator ICE in real life, sorry.

Dont really have plans for the 5W version.

Wondering which ones to get, the PIAA's or the Predator ICE?? I want them to be white and bright. Would really like to get the LUX 5.0's but can't bring myself to spend that much money for just the angel eyes. Input appreciated!

There are LED solutions out there for the E92 from Bellof and PIAA but no one had tried them yet.
