Gp Thunder Angel Eye Bulbs.... Not Bright At All....

WU99WU · 01-17-2010, 12:18 AM

Have a 2007 BMW 335i coupe production date 9/2006, bought some GP Thunder Angel eyes for cheap, was not expecting the end result to look the way it does. It's like the inside ring (closest to kidney grill) is brighter than the other!... lolz i never had this issue with any other bmw's. Guess for $20 shipped on ebay i can't complain right? This is just a FYI for any other newbies to this model of BMW, save your $$ and buy a lux, moss, mtec, dtec angel eyes for $160+

Your stock halogen bulbs will be much brighter since it does not lose any lumens. Any hyperwhite bulb in place of it will be the worst bang for you buck.

The Lux H8 or Angel iBright would be the best LED plug and play option. You can take it a setup further with the OSS Designs setup.

Did you get the GP Thunder Version 1 or Version 2? I have Ver.2 on mine and they look surprisingly bright!
