Yeah, RawBurt. It's not just Goonz being a pain. I have 7500k PIAA bulbs in my car right now, and they are totally useless in rain, and weak at night.
If all you want is show. Buy my headlight bulbs from me and call it day. Saves you money and still same lighting effect. I paided $90 on eBay for them.

I knew you'd be here as soon as the word 8000k was said. Heres my logic, I saw pics of the 6000k in the thread over on w-body and it look weak as hell. I'm getting the conversion kit only and I do not plan on fitting projectors. So either way the kit is going to give off glare and look crappy. So since 8000k puts out less like output, I'm saving others on the road Ok so I just pulled that out of my a$s. But still this kit is dirt cheap, I'm not too concerned and it'll look HAWT!

dude do you even know wtf 8000K looks like? whatever it sais above (blue white) is complete bull-sh!t! 8000K is PURE PURPLE!!! if you like your road lit purple then man I must be going insane here..you will absoloutly not benefit outa getting HID's IMO if you go with 8000K..
im just trying to guide people who dont know HID's too well and base their decisions off of pictures and etc cause pictures have NEVER done justice to HID's..

Yeah, pictures do nothing for me at all. In person is a totally different story. I saw Haroons HID pics and said fugg that, 8000k for me.
In person they look sweet as hell.
There is someone around my area that drives a Acura Legend with 8000k HID. They blind the hell out of you coming head on with him but the light output from the drivers view is almost none existent. The light is absorbed by the ground like crazy.
Only look brighter from looking at the car head on.

Keep in mind a 4300k bulb will shift color to 5000k as they break in.
