Holy full size pictures taking up double my 12.5" screen...
It would have been nice at least if you posted F15 or F16 headlights not some other model for comparison.

Basides the bars, remember with LED you have fully functioning set of headlights, whereas with xenons you only have one headlight on. It's a huge difference in visibility and looks. Not saying xenons are weak, they are nice, but there is a big difference than just a bar in them.
Also you get LED blinkers, they look really good, much cleaner and better looking than amber incandescent (welcome to 2001) bulbs that BMW insists on using on a $70k+ vehicle while $20k sedans already upgraded to full leds.
