does anyone here use or know anything about the quality of these compared to angelbright?

The PIAA is good quality, but it's not very bright.
We have a special that we are running for the much brighter Predator ICE kit.

here's a direct comparison of the PIAA versus our version 1 kit which is 30% less output than the V2.

The Piaa ones look pretty cool though. They have that blueish tint to them.

But the PIAA doesn't look like the light output is uniform throughout the ring. Umnitza, don't you guys offer a different colored angel eye kit?

 

[umnitza]

We offer blue and red, but not any other colors for now.

For someone like Bimmerbear who likes the blue-ish angel eyes, based on those pictures, its a no-brainer to stay clear of product P

Umnitza is correct.

I know because I tried the PIAA's already.

I finally settled and am now happy with the Predator ICE.
I have two sets.

But then again, I upgraded mine to a higher wattage bulb and higher current rating LED driver.

From my opinion the idea is to have clear xenon-like angel-eyes like iBright (or this predator set looks pretty nice as well), that P set looks more like some Rice tuning kit, unfortunately.

Just keep in mind always that IT IS YOUR CAR. Go with whatever it is that you like or whatever makes you happy.

Imagine if we all like the same thing.....Imagine if all of our M5's are alike because we all want the same thing....

So as long as Mod's are tastefully done and you are happy with it - I think that's all that matters.

Keeping your beast unique sets it aside from the rest.

At the end of the day, it is yourself that has to be happy with your beast, not other people.

So, my motto in life - Do whatever makes you happy.

I have the PIAAs and they are not as bright as the ibrights. I paid about $100 for them so they are OK for me.

I love the purpleish look from the Piaa's, but i wish they were brighter....they match my Kaixen bulbs....i most likely will upgrade to the Predators but i need to see them in person to see the color output....

I have the predators that came with the Projector39 headlights and they are awesome. They are perfect both at night and during the day. I was worried that they were gonna be too big or bright, but nope.

Predator Ice

What is the degree of difficulty on installing the Predator Ice rings?

My right side rings went out and probably now is the time to install something different.

Thanks

For E39s, takes 10 minutes at most.
