Headlight/Fog light Replacement/Air Intake Replacement

These are just some minor things I want to do with my 11 non S R56. Looking for some suggestions.

As far as headlights there is no way around me not getting HID's. My vision at night is nothing worse than terrible because of lighting. Would like to know a durable brand to choose from

Also with changing headlights to HID I don't want my dog lights all dull with those Hallogen lights. I was looking at replacing them with HID's as well but I saw some led's that seemed easier and a lot less expensive. What to do.?!

Lastly for now, air intake. I want to go faster!!! (I know, I should've got an S but I didn't) looking for suggestions, if any, on a different intake. Gain some hp. Gain some noise

Help.?!

Headlights:

Spyder Headlights are good , I have them, great for Xenon, for the halogen cars , there better but you can always upgrade to LED retrofit kit aftermarket or Xenon retrofit kit.

Other the that there are the Factory Xenon retrofits:
63102347698 KT they come in titanium grey and are 25w xenon, not 35w like factory stock ordered. Good output and plug and play, you just have o get them flashed by MINI afterwards for the strobe issues.

Foglights and ziza positions light leds: Some cars on have the positions lights, which are not fog lights, so check for the fog light on the toggle bank.
