Just like you I didn't get the lighting package. I had it in my previous BMW, but this time for a leased car I wanted to meet a price point. Somehow I feel less attached to a lease car than a car I own.
Anyhow I don't care about the look that much, but the low beams are lacking in pitch dark mountain roads. I think the only reasonable and effective solution is to upgrade the bulbs to a whiter light, something like Sylvania Silverstar ultra or Piaa night tech. The downside is that these bulbs have a shorter life, I figure about a year for silver stars.
I believe silver stars made a very noticeable difference in my Mazda for about $35 a year.
Other retrofits are either illegal or cost prohibitive and might also affect your warranty.
