HID headlight issue

so i pull up to my house the other night and notice that my headlights give off different colors. By this i mean the drivers side headlight was the regular HID bright white but the passenger side was a faint white/orangish color, kind of like regular headlights on cars

do i need to change my bulbs, or some other part

im planning on changing the headlights altogether to the JDM black ones in the next month or so anyways, so buying new bulbs (which never have been changed in the cars 151,000 miles) was something i was planning on getting

thanks alot guys

Yes you need to replace the bulb. Your most likely looking at a pinkish color. thats a sign that the bulb is about to go. The run into problems when you hear a clicking noise (igniter trying to fire the bulb) when you turn on the lights. other then that change your bulbs and your G2G
