2012 e93 335i aftermarket headlights don't exist

Sooo. I have done many web searches and have had no luck finding any aftermarket headlights for my year 335i. Everything is for sedan for my year or for prior to 2010. What’s going on?!?

In my opinion, all aftermarket stuff is trying hard to mimic the new generation style of headlight, which, again, in my opinion, don't look as good as the E series.

You have an E93, I would have loved to get this style of headlight on my E90.
Find someone who can do BMW headlight modification, get the inner part in satin black, get LED halo rings of quality. And you are set.

I have looked into having my existing lights modified as you suggested but damn that’s pricey! Any recommendations on who to use or look into?

Your best bet is finding someone local. I have joined a local Facebook group for BMW and you always see interesting items for sale or services offered. You can also ask on the group and someone might chime in.

Sending it online to a business will always end up costing much.
But again, your OEM lights are better than anything aftermarket that is cheap. They are cheap-er for a reason.

Good luck and post any updates you get.
