Why is yours more purpleish? I personally thought they both looked very bright, but yours (the integra) looked more purpleish with more focused beam shot!.... And that, my man... is DAH ****! Looks really koo man!

They look more purple because the bulbs are 6000K. 6000K color temp is more "purple/bluish" than the OEM TL bulbs which are around 4200K, I think.

I will sell my 6000K upgrade bulb next month since I will sell my car.

The bulb is D2R and lifetime is about 3000 hours, 1000 hours more lifetime compare to the 4200K.

Will sell for $225 (a pair)shipped. I have been using it for about 3 weeks now.

Send me a PM if anybody interested.

Please rephrase that in a adult manner.

And the price is expensive due to the fact that they are HID bulbs.

Recommend? As for what? for the bulbs? or other parts?

hehe...I was just practicing my "thug talk", sometimes we need dat sh** down heeya in da dirty souf, no what i'm sayin'?!! Thanks for the compliments, and as far as TL mods go, I'd just save up and get some rims, I think that makes the best looking improvement looks wise. Or if you want to go cheaper, put some 2K2 tails in if it's an older TL, they make a big difference IMO also. For a guy who doesn't own a TL, that's about all I can suggest!!

My girl got them through a performance shop here in town, who charged her WAY too much for them. I the cheapest I've seen them on the Net is from a guy over on Honda-Acura.net who says he sells the K2 kit (with 6000K) bulbs, which is what I have, for $450 shipped and the Philips (with 4700K bulbs) for $475. His screen name is badmuthrfkr...but I've never bought from him, so I can't give you any details about reliability or anything, but I've spoke to him a few times and he seems legit. Tim (Snook) who owns this sight may also be able to get them. I know Ken2000AC tried to get my girl a set for me through him, but he couldn't find a set in the time she needed. But if time's not an issue, I'm sure he might be able to get a set. My ballast are not Phillips, but they do say they were manufactured in Japan on them. I haven't had them long enough yet to tell you how reliable they are, but so far I've had no problems.

Josh next time I'm over the crib I'll just "swipe" them pics of Summer, bring 'em over the the spot and scan 'em for all of the TL guys.

I mean really....your girl can't do anything to me. Besides...I've known her all her life just about...all you really have to do is take her to Olive Garden and she forgives and forgets all.

Hey JLmaxR1,

Question about your conversion kit, are they d2r or d2s bulbs?

What's the make of the bulbs?

Thanks
