hella vs zkw

[m3f_bmw4life13_0098c1d2b1]

which would look better on an e36 m3...hella xenon headlamps or the zkw with angel eyes? i think the zkw looks very nice but i can't find any place that actually sells the zkw with angel eyes & xenon lights preinstalled. on the other hand, hella appears to be the only company that preassembles angel eyes and xenons. the only problem that i have with the hella headlamps are that they are chromed, which might look a little too bling bling. what do you guys think?

umnitza.com has exactly what you are looking for. hella are chrome inside.. some people like it, but it definitely doesn't look stock!

umnitxa sells the zkw with angel eyes but not with xenon/hid low beam lights....sucks!!

[m3f_Angella_c036ec6b5f]

yep - too 'bling bling'... I like the zkw's much better... if I can ever allocate money to non-necessary stuff, those are on my list.

Are the DDE's pre-installed on the ZKW/DDE set that Umnitza sells?

[m3f_ubersnax]

talk to matt he might be able to find you the HID...

The Hellas are superior in lighting and build, however the ZKW's look 10x better IMO... Now if the Hellas had a black insert like the ZKW's I'd definetly have the Hellas.

i've seen on ebay hella headlamps with the black housing but they don't come with the xenon lights.

Hella have now made their Celis lights available in the UK with a black housing for the E36... don't know how long they'll take to get to the US. They still have the small halo's though...

interesting, I'm looking forward to seeing the Hellas w/o all the chrome!

is there a big difference in the quality of zkw vs bosch vs depot?

[m3f_1-bar]

Lookwise, the ZKW's are just prettier. here is a comparison side by side.

they look nice but small to me

Actually, with respect to build quality, the ZKWs are 2X better than the current Hellas.



We might have some HIDs

you're the first person that has said that the zkw headlamps are of better quality than the hella. any evidence to support that statement?...just curious.
