WRONG.

All you need are headlight units that are E-marked for use on that car with HID units.

Was the 4 ever fitted with HIDs?
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Standard on all R32's and as said was a £900 option on other models, Not as rare as you might think, Xenons come with the Twin indicators which replaced the fog lights.
