How can a 55 watt PIAA bulb be bad for a 55 watt OEM bulb? It's the same wattage.

A good alternate option to match your HIDs are from HOEN.

Hi
How much is it to convert to HID fogs on E63?
Do I need to remove bumper to replace them?

Yes and no, PIAA claim 85 Watts of light on 55 Watts of electricity.
They will burn up/melt wires and mounts in lamps.
To be fair the stock 55 Watt bulbs will melt the lamps too, but not as fast as the PIAA.
