wishminewasanss Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Hey 12'srock, 6000k is like bright white right? Looks sick and thanx for the pics but I think I would want some blue in there so I guess 8000k would be it right? Both bright and a hint of blue. Because the guy that's selling me the hid's confused me telling me that 6000k would be bright white/blue, and 8000k bright purple?? Huumm...? Thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx yes the 6000k are a bright white.. . .keep in mind that every hid kit is different they will be different colors comapred to others with the same kelvin rating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooter3 Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 I have had both 6000 and 8000. 8000 are a little more blue, but don't put out as much light. I am looking at getting a set myself and will most likley go with the 6000. Here is something you might want to check out. http://www.mobilehid.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NTMD8R_SS Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Whatever you get it would be a big diffrence from halogen. Pssssss get 8k you won't regret it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 8K's look cool but IMO stick with 6K's or 4300's because you can SEE! But the most important concern with HIDs is not the color but ballast quality, make sure you don't get stuck with cheap ballasts. Mr. P.
