HID pics?

Ok since im goin HID (halogen can eat my ass, especially silverstars) Since in NOT doing projectors so the kelvin is gonna matter now, and yes i know the higher temp u go the less light u get, im debating between the 6000k and 8000k kits? Or even 10000k kit if it looks good enough. Who has pics of what HID temp?

I dont have any pics but I know 8000K is VERY blue, but not that bright at all. Definitely go with 5000K for pure white, 6000K is bright white with a little blue - my preference. If you want 8000K with more blue add fog/driving lights so you can see lol.

I have 7000K which is just the blue color i wanted. I with they were brighter though. I'd say 6000K is the overall best matchup for color and brightness

For all those who say HID's have bad glare... they just took a bad picture. I took these pictures with my right knee on the ground and there is hardly ANY glare... just aim them a tiny bit lower and everything is cool... damn haters on HID's and their glare

If you need them for your turn sigs, I got mine off of cardomain's store. the turn sig bulb is 7440. My car looks 10 times sexier with clear turn sigs and a fixed bumper.
