Need some opinions..

Ok guys.. This is probably going to sound like a pretty dumb question, but I dont know what to get for my car this week.

I'm stuck between 6000k HID's or Tint all around.. can Anyone chime in and help me out?

Tint—make sure it's a good tint company and you have a good warranty on it.

if you already have projectors, then HIDs! (I say that b/c w/ the projectors you retain your ability to use your high beams, and with stock headlights you lose your high beams altogether) If you don't have projectors, then I say the tint!

I am leaning towards tint but I do think HID's are pretty sexy. and I will be getting bi-xenon hid's because I want to keep my hi/lo

anyone got any pictures of 30% tint all around? Tint on the doors is illegal here but well of course i'm doing it anywayz, just want it to flow nicely so its not that noticeable but still looks tinted.

HIDs are pointless in my opinion... if you are so blind that you need them, then you should probably consider only driving during the day anyway... the funny thing is that you are looking at two extremes... one to increase the light and the other to reduce it...

Tint will give it a different look during the day, and the HID for night. For appearance I'd go with day time looks.
