Option 2. I may be bias. That was the one I had on my E55 with the conversion.

Would this make me +2? Anyhow, while I agree that one looks a little gaudy, I do like the look of both. If I had to chose one, I would go with #2.

Option 2

And what I really think you need to do is remove the fog lights. I think it looks very stupid having both, fogs and DRLs, in the same area.

+1. makes the front end look like a snow plow. very unfortunate that there isn't a carlsson style lip available for the 211. the lip in option 1 looks similar but not quite carlsson style. I'd go for paint match.
