Red Angel Eyes on E92 Coupe. How can it be done?

Does anyone know how to make red angel eyes on the e92 coupe? Is there a way it can be done now or is the product not out yet?

Has anyone done it yet? If you do show us your pictures.

^ my best guess is to get a red tint H8 bulb so the light emits would be red. If not, I believe I have seen a "red shield" that goes around the bulb and works the same.

As a side note, how are you going to drive the car onto the street? You will confuse the hell out of other motorists on the street as they think they are going in the wrong direction You know, headlight is white and taillight is red...duh...

It is illegal too. You'll get a ticket for impersonating a police officer. Red lights can only be used by the police. GL though. I would like to see someone put on some bright yellow angel eyes.

Depends on where you are, i had red halos on my e39 for almost two years and never had trouble with police in my town or NYC. You can get the red halos on ebay.

Where can you purchase the red shields from? thats seems to be the best way, if popos say anything you can just pop the shield out right?

Pretty sure they are illegal in all 50 because red and blue can only be used on the front of emergency vehicles, red can only be used on the back of other vehicles and blue can't be used at all...depends on how bored the cop is and how noticeable you make yourself.
If you are lucky...the worse that will happen if you get pulled over, is a fix-it ticket.

who cares if they're illegal in some states? the whole point is just asking where we (who are interested) can possibly get red angel eyes for the E92?

you know what else is illegal? going 66 in a 65 zone

I doubt they make Red H8 bulbs bro, I haven't seen any at all, just go with white or stay stock and don't get pulled

Look at the xenon halo upgrade. Pretty sure it's illegal in all 50 states on the public road. You'd only want to have it for show.

EDIT: Oops, my bad, that's for the e90. Guess it doesn't work in the 92.
