just got my car back, 2011 bmw 328i
right now the headlights are stock, and they're yellow, how much would it cost to change em to the white led kind?
and how much would it cost to get rim painted black? they're currently the stock alloy ones.

thanks


what it currently looks like :

You're going to have a headache with the BMW since you didn't research their problems.

This, at least he's got warranty.

And as far as the wheels you will want to get them powdercoated. Should cost anywhere from 50$-80$ per wheel, and plz don't plastidip them.

i saw plastidip while googling around, looks not bad ;o, cheap and is removable ;o
i dont rly want to do it my self tho.

but my main question lies with the headlight, is simply changing the bulb gonna give it the white angel eyes, or do i have to change the entire thing, which would cost a lot??
