They make H4 retro hid kits that fit RIGHT in, no projectors, no shields, etc. They run around $250-$300

They look way better than projectors (just because those headlights are buttfukkin-ugly). For your car, you'd want H4 hi/lo. For a BMW color, 6000K or 8000K would probably be best. I think older BMW's had a 4300K color, and ice-whiteish color.

No ... it's not. It's the projectors that make it looks different colors at different angles. It's still the kelvin temperature that makes it blue.
