Had another look on Google, there are companies out there that can customise E89 headlights.
In the US its OSS Designs. In the UK its NEM (never enough mods).
I'll just leave these photos here...

Those look fantastic but $2000 just for the build? at least they give you 2 years warranty, looking at the NEM site they are cheaper and can customise to just the components you want but the warranty is just 30 days! doesn't indicate much confidence in their products.

Reviving this topic. These companies in America that paint the stock headlamp unit. I cannot find them. Does anybody have a name or link ? Thanks.

Those headlights look fantastic. Shame they can’t do anything with the rear lights for the E89.
BMW E89 3.5i M Sport manual, loving it….
Audi S5 Cab, Great car but not special enough….
BMW E89 3.5i DCT, Havana Brown, should never have sold it…..

I’ve emailed OSS. They’re in North Carolina, on the other side of the country. They offer different ‘programmes’. I just want the unit painted black to match the car. It’d be nice to find a local shop. But then, it was cheaper to post the steering wheel to Devon and pay U.K. labour, than working with a shop in Silicon Valley. Let’s see what they say.

there is a lever inside to adjust this
How is this accessed/easily done? Driving mine to Spain in April and wondered if this was possible..

Headlight beam pattern is fixed on the E89. No lever.
You need a new headlight for driving on the right.
I tried those aftermarket headlights, beam pattern is wrong for UK.
