My Brand New M4 Mineral white ..... Need some help A.s.a.p

[7sss]

Ive had my m4 since the 1st of march purchased it brand new its a 2016 coupe with the carbon roof mineral white with shakir orange leather surround view camera and reverse camera carbon trim inside etc basically fully loaded accept for the led headlights which im gutted about i tried to change them while the car was being built but i was too late and im really regretting it. As we speak i have 7 grand worth of extras being fitted including mpe with carbon tips with rear diffuser front splitter carbon gear lever and carbon handbrake, also black kidney grills and the side intakes. My point being is I've spent a lot of money and gone all out on the car and i really want to get the led lights to complete the look if anyone could advice me or help me would be very grateful.

Drive the car...enjoy it....the lights don't make it handle differently.

I know m8 but when you have spent so much money it would just complete the look its literally fully loaded and with all my m performance parts being installed it would just finish the look the led lights look so mean guess its my inner perfectionist coming out lol

Well as LED lights are a £1600 option, you could safely say it's going to cost a hell of a lot more to get them retro fitted.

What do you want advise on? Whether to buy them or where to source them from? Or what?

where to get them and how i should go about it i don't care about the cost I've spent so much on m performance parts and the spec on the car i just want to give it that finishing touch with the led lights .... do you have them and do you think they look much better then the xenons ??

Hate to say it but yes they do look better. I know this just adds to your agony and I wish I had a solution.

I guess your dealer will be the first port of call. But make sure you are sitting down when you take the call.

I don't blame you wanting the upgrade, but it'll cost and its money you won't get back. And although they could be fitted to the car, they won't be down as an option that came with the car, against the VIN

Mate,
I dont have them, can't say I have missed them. I would possibly order them if I bought another mainstream M4 model F80, F83, F83. Your car will look wicked with all your Mods, save your money and buy lowering springs or coil overs etc that will give you a lower stance.

Yup pretty spot on, it's possible of course, trawl the US threads for LED retrofit and speak to your dealer but be prepared for £2000++

Enjoy the car as is.....where will you stop?

It's not got the competition pack for example, a mere £3k (likely £2500 with discounts), it's not a GTS, it's not hot the optional £10k CF wheels the GTS can get......etc etc

Difficult to always max out, you have an amazing car that would would look fractionally better with LEDs but not much. The Xenons DRLs being classically rounder look better to me but the LED light is more naturally white and high bean is cool.

Good luck and the car, post some MPE clips when fitted, beastly sound!

Precisely what Denso says. Use that cash to sort out suspension. I would rather get rid of that arch gap ANY day than have LEDs.

this is pretty much the only option I have left off my order.

just not worth it. others will see the cosmetic difference you will not.

as for a difference in visibility from what I have read there is little difference just a different colour of light

don't bother

Totally agree, I have LEDs on the merc and they are not that great.. £1600 is a lot for lights that are not that much better
