What is the consensus best HID angel eyes kit to match F10 5 series HID color?

In terms of color.....which kit and which manufacturer matches up the closest to the HID angel eyes on the new 5 series that won't throw any error codes at all and are good quality? I see a million different manufacturers who have these.

Also wondering.

Anyone? 8000K?

8000k will be on the blue side of the light spectrum. I'd look into around 4300-5100k if you're trying to match the stock xenons.

Thanks.

He was referring to the new 5 series angel eyes though. They are almost purpleish from what I have seen. I know the X5 LCI are. Thats exactly the look i want. Have you seen one in person?

I don't want it too purple though, just want it like the OP asked.
