Please lmk who else is interested.

I know several people are waiting on response whether they can be cheaper than $1100 without eyebrows or if we ca do a core/refund method. I'll update here tomorrow.
I think eyebrows are required due to the ring style and hiding the wires

The standard headlights come with non-LED carbon fiber eyebrows at no extra charge... This kit for $1100 includes the LED eyebrow, which is an LED light bar that glows white and matches the halos, but flashes amber color when turn signal is switched.

Since some people don't want the LED eyebrow, one of my follow up points is to see what the price would be without it.

When you list "ZKW-R projectors", does that include the inner dummy projectors as well? How much extra would new headlight lenses be?

ZKW-R projectors are just the main headlights, the super bright ones that actually work... it does not include the "quad look" fake/dummy projectors for the inner lights.

If you want the quad look, please lmk and I'll get a price quote.

Thanks for setting this GB up. Can you please get me a price for these? I can't stop looking at this pic. Makes her not look so happy.

I did both the 3/4 Bavgruppe rings and the ZKW-R lenses and can confirm that both make a pretty dramatic difference; the 3/4 rings are stupid bright, and the lenses not only amplify the light output but it creates this laser cutoff.




where the left is stock and the right is the ZKW-R lens:

Ok, so regarding core charge; they've been leaning away from it because of receiving headlights with broken tabs, bad internal servo motors, and frayed wire harnesses.

If they are to offer a core option, person will need to provide photos of upper tabs, wiring, etc.

They have a handful of cores at this time, so I'm hoping we can offer it to the first 5 (or so) people who absolutely need it (if possible).

That being said, it's confirmed that they can plan for quick turnarounds for folks who can't be without their headlights for long (2-3 day turnaround time confirmed).

Yes, international shipping is okay. PM me if you need it.

More on pricing coming soon..

This sounds great. My question is will this upgrade significantly improve night time visibility?

I've got an e92 m3 and an e90 335 and my night vision on the 335 is far superior than the m3.

So in addition to looking cool I'd like some improvement in nighttime visibility if possible. Can anyone confirm that??

Confirmed. The lights will definitely be brighter, this is because they will have updated ZKW-R projectors. See Silos' post above.

Might be interested depending on the cost of core exchange, and additional cost of the lens etching and quad look.

And what does the “LCI beauty piece” vs “LCI Beauty peice + LED mean?”

1st photo - Shows headlights WITHOUT the LCI beauty piece, they have a lens in the outer corners.

[Btw, this exact headlight will be less than $1100 with our group buy (since no LED brow) - Waiting to confirm exact pricing]. It includes the ZKW-R projectors.]

2nd photo - Shows headlights WITH LCI beauty piece, it is that piece of plastic in the outer corner of the headlights with lines in it.

[Btw, this exact headlight is $1300 (or 1100 without the LCI corner piece). It has the LED brows. It includes the ZKW-R projectors.]

3rd photo- Shows headlights WITH LCI beauty piece + LED, it has LEDs imbedded in between the lines of outer the corners.

Please lmk if any questions on any of these.
