      Get 6000k

      I wish I would have gotten 4300k or 5000k personally, I have 6000k and its pretty bright and has a tint of blue. I like it until I drive next to an acura tsx though

          The TSX uses projectors, which are the major factor in their color (or lack thereof), as well as the beam pattern and cutoff. The TSX projector retrofit is a very popular mod for our cars, in both USDM glass lights and JDM plastic one piece lights.


          I have a 6000k kit in my GTP that I purchased from Reason here on the board (great product, fast service). I also have an OEM BMW setup going through Audi A4 projectors in my CB7. The Audi projectors make for a very nice pattern. I don't know the temp of those, but they're similar in color to the 6000k.


          IMO, 6000k is the best to get. It's clean white, while retaining the look of HID. If you go lower than 6000k, you still get nice bright light, but to me it looks more like Silverstar bulbs, or something along those lines.

          8000k is a little TOO blue... and more than that is just ridiculous. I've seen some pretty funky colors!

              8000k is too blue for me. I have 6000k and very happy with it.

                    x2. I think even 6,000 isn't awful because you get some color, but anything more that is probably going to hurt your output.

                    I don't know what K value mine is, but it's not crazy blue and I really like it. It's very similar to the 6000K kit Eric (R33) is using in his Integra.

                        I have seen the 4300 and 6k. Personally I am divided between them. I prefer the color of the 4300, but like illumination the 6k gives. I know I prefer to have the 4300's in my rear view mirror.

                            sorry, but the 3.2 tl doesnt have 12000k hid bulbs. they are 4300k hid bulbs. If you truly thought they were really blue. either you saw them during the day since hids looks more bluer in the day or the bulbs were super old as hid bulbs turn blue as they age.

                            the recommended temp for hid bulbs are 4300-6000k for low beam. fogs are 3000k since it is best to have light reflected off the ground during rain or snow, since 4300-6000k arent able to do that. for low beam, anything above 6k is useless to yourself.

                              4300 is good. 8000 or more and cops here in florida like to give you a hard time.
