you do know that any bulb higher than 6000K's will actually have less light output...the only thing that 12,000K's do is change the color of the light.

12,000K is way too close to black light which is 20,000K. The light output must be horrible but the color looks sweet. I can imagine how purple they are in person because I know from experience that HID color doesnt come out good in pics. I'm sure anything thats colored white on the road must glow. That price isnt bad either. If I didnt spend so much on my HIDs already I would probably get a set for myself.

HELL NO!

That purple color is nice but it is not going to light up the road well at all. Plus the cops will have a field day with you and you will not pass inspection with that. Anything above 6000K, the light output will diminish.

Exactly. The light output will have a more purplish hue to them, but the light output will be less.

I would not recommend getting them.
