They almost look purple when in person, they are extremely bright, and they are equal in light output. The inner circle is just as bright as the outer circle.

I've always wondered this and could never figure it out. I started noticing the new updated angel eyes on BMW's in early 2011.
It appears that BMW's new LED andel eyes design has different setup. Each ring has its own light source instead of having one H8 bulb for 2 rings. It looks like there are 2 powerful LED bulbs for each ring so they are very very bright. Hope I could retro fit the new headlight housing on my e92 M3 but I know it won't fit because the shape is different.
