I think it's to give it more of a blue effect. which might lessen the light output even more. I personally wouldn't buy these.

Those are cheap blue coated D2 bulbs. Thats not how normal 6000K bulbs are. Normal ones blueness is caused by a different mixture in the xenon gases in the bulb. Those are crap.

STAY AWAY FROM THOSE BULBS! Real 6000k HIDs are clear, not these blue coated garbage. I have philips 6000k, and the tube is cystal clear.

those are some cheapo 6000k hid wanna be made by korean companies. yes the blue tint is to make it LOOKS blue and make you think "man i finally got 6000K"

i have said over 1000 times already but go get philips. 250 shipped isn't a bad price for a set of real stuff, and it last a long time. i have 6000k hid on all my cars and they are all by philips, clear lens, purple ground wire, and reb brown metal sand. those are the characteristic of philips bulbs....

yeah I really hate seeing people with fake hid. they think changing to a light bulb that looks more bluish than oem is hid. Come on, no body will say a thing if they leave the stock halogen alone, but now they look like a fool with some bluish halogen, neither it's bright like real hid or vibrant color like the real thing. Sad to say I am seeing more and more these rides.

I bought a set of those last year and took them out once I turned them on. They look exactly like superwhites. I sent them back for real 6000K's.
