i would want it blue like 10 000k - 12 000k,, but that seems mad bright and illegal rofl
^If your car didn't come equipped with HIDs (which it didn't), it's technically illegal to get them for on-road use. Cops here don't care much about that, as long as it's not obnoxious and blinding other drivers.
Thanks so much g3girl !! i read the thread and i saw u got 6000k, they look pretty nice. I want a more bluish look, like the bmw ones. but what do u mean about getting them adjusted afterwards? if i get them installed ima get them done at my garage, so do i still have to worry about it?>
^If you're talking about BMW
factory HIDs, you're looking at about 4100-4300K. I can't remember off the top of my head, but I'm pretty sure it's 4300K. You said you want a more "bluish look, like the BMW ones." Bluish compared to halogen bulbs or bluish compared to factory HIDs?
My brother has 6000K in his 5-Series and it looks pretty damn blue compared to other cars on the road. You have to take into consideration the optics of the light itself, too. BMWs use a projector lense that emits a much clearer and a bluer light (from some angles) even if they're running 4300K. It has to do with the way the light is reflected in the projector itself. Read up on it a little bit. You'll learn stuff.
P.S. It doesn't matter where you get them installed. lol You're just going to need a level surface, a wall, and about 25' of distance between your car and the wall when you're adjusting the headlights. :thumbs up
honestly i think ima stick to this:
