i think 10k is suppose to be iceburg blue with a hint of violet. 12k is more purple. those look more like 8k ish to me. but since that was a daytime picture i cant really tell. night time pic will show it better. but still, anything over 6k is just not even practical.

guys, theres nothing wrong with not taking advantage of what HIDs have to offer...so what if he wants 50% less visibility and 500% more attraction from cops. hes a young 19 year old...let his character build from his lessons in life.

yea i might be 19 but that has nothing to do with my hid's haha just because im not going for the look that everyone else is. i been browsing this forums for years since i was 16 i knew i was gonna be critisized for them , im not going for that inspire/saber lip kits and all that hype , like i always say its better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.

no, you should try to match the head lights with the fogs. Stick to 10K all the way around!

Whaa? Doing 10k low-beams isn't original, it just sucks. So you've certainly got the fail part. Do what you want, but don't think you're being original or improving at all on your TL. And that is exactly the mentality of all ricers.
