... some of you should visit forums such as HID Planet.
They'll tell you; go with either 4300k or 6000k in the headlights (best light output), and either 3000k or 4300k in the fogs (less color for better visibility).
They will also tell you that anything over 8000k is wasting you money, because they are illegal, stupid looking, and not very bright.

Here is how it breaks down people... QUIT ARGUING.

4300 - WHITE

6000 - Light Blue

8000 - Bluish Purple <---- anything past this, your wasting your money!

10000 - Purple

12000 - Funnier looking purple

12000+ - It turns pink.

The higher the kelvin after like 4900k the less lumens you receive. Lumen are good! Lumens = Light!

HIDs Pwn half of you!

Ok so help me out here. Isn't there something you could use that would fit stock lighting to get a more blue tint? Call me crazy but how far out do you think you can see at night anyway? The only use I've ever found for those HIDs is blinding my azz when I'm trying to drive and there's some one coming at me with them. The projectors look cool, but is the HID really doing that much more for you?
