LED Angel Eyes – LED Tail Lights Create Distinction For BMW 3 Series

BMW has been focusing on new LED lighting systems to make the 2011 BMW E92 3 Series Coupe as recognizable at both night time and as well as its new stylish LED BMW Angel Eyes as daytime running lights at daytime.

A total of 155 pieces regular and high power LEDs illuminate the BMW E92 3 Series Coupe's interior and exterior, creating a unique look that builds on the brand's heritage of innovative lighting and design, according to BMW's chief designer, Chris Bangle.

The fiber optical LED light pipes -- clear tubes that direct light -- for the BMW's brake lights, turn signal lights, and tail running lights are the latest theme for BMW's newly signature design of tail light lamps that have distinguished BMW from 2006.

"Lighting is one of the last frontiers to differentiate cars," said one of BMW design director, adding that "countless hours and days" went into designing the BMW's sleek and modern look tail lights. "We decided to make lighting a key element of the car's appearance and character."

The front daytime running lights are also different from most other European vehicles such as Audi, Mercedes. BMW has finally made its signature and unique Angel Eye Halo Rings using high power Xenon White LED lights which has much better looking for its previous yellowish angel eyes and can be seen from quite far away and instantly link your mind to BMW even without seeing this car clearly.
