      I am not a huge fan of angel eyes unless the car came with them stock. They just look so cheap to me.

      But since I am here to help:

      and because I just can't help it=P

        I won't hate on you for the angel eyes, If E39's came with them and look good with them, E46's can too.

          I'm going to go ahead and say no angel eyes. Just scream ricer to me.

            I've never been a fan of them either unless they came on the car stock, but if you like them then do what you want, its your car! I believe depo makes projector headlights for the e46 that you can put angel eyes in pretty easily

              Normally I'm with you guys on things like Angel eyes, BUT!!!  If the car has round projector lights, you already have a circle in a square, the Angel eyes seem to fit better then, plus, as an e39 owner, I am partial to them.

                E46's look great with angel eyes, I'm amazed it wasn't a factory option honestly. It looks really good IMO! Go for it.

                    These are what I ran on my car. 00 E46 328i so same exact car and it was super easy to do and they are bright. I got the optional RemoteOn headlight wiring kit as well.

                            Pre 2001 e39 headlights are horrible.  2001-2003 are spectacular.....however I still replaced mine with euro hellas to get rid of the orange corner lens's

                              YES! I agree with you 100% there. should of clarified and ditching the orange corners  is a huge must! I absolutely love the Headlights I have on mine. aside from the impossible halo rings that i cannot get to work right.

                                That's the one down side about the aftermarket lights.  The Halos aren't very solid.

                                Even in my stock hellas have a flickering issue.

                                    ^That is an awesome idea. I would squish a bunch of lightning bugs and put their butts in an old straw and tape it into a circle. You could sell them as "organic"

                                      This is where I bought mine http://www.khoalty.com/bmw-e46-led-angel-eyes.html. It looks good on my e46. I have seen some that look cheap these don't. They fit like it was made for the car.

                                      PS I had the daytime lamps programmed off so they look better now.

                                          You better steer clear. J/K I think they are very BMW and if they are on anything else it is incorrect. Depo are the best for the money Glass lenses and what not. They have options for projector or HID. Up to how much you want to spend. The plastic is pretty brittle though so you will have to be careful when installing.
