Most any full ring replacement product will be completely different from a plug and play bulb. Its like comparing apples to oranges in terms of price, installation, and overall look.

The LUX bulbs require the optics of the headlights to illuminate the rings. Due to the design of the corona rings, you won't get a consistent look from all angles and even lighting to the outer and inner rings. The inner rings will be brighter.

I'm running orion v4s and the lighting pattern is consistent and very visible during the day. I would say if you were a DIYer, go for the orions because they'll look better, if not LUX is not a bad choice.

Very nice! Do you know what k the V4 is set to on the M3?

In all honesty I think the Lux is the perfect set up. A lot of the newer angel eyes are just way too bright, you can't even look at them without being blinded and they bleed into a fuzz.

Will post up pictures tommorow! Got them installed today, very easy install except that sometimes it's a bit of a challenge to get the bulb into the headlight.
They look great!

That looks pretty terrible. Disappointing for a product of such value. I would expect to pay 1/4 the price for the outcome.

Which picture are you referring to? Remember that what you see in a picture and what you see in person is 99% of the time different. Camera's are not very good at taking pictures of bright light sources. This holds even more true to camera phones

And therein lies the issue. You have an "official pictures thread", yet when non-professionals take pics of their LUX bulbs they look pretty terrible. Examples are the photos above, which show a bright inner corona but an almost invisible outer corona.

a lot of it has to do with the distance and angle. here's a couple of pics of my car close up and far away. i have cheap 20w bulbs, not lux.
