I keep seein the same answer on here, 6k is white, 8k has a slight blue hue to it, 10k is blue. If you want te slight blue hue go with 8k. I personally would not use anything outside the 4k-8k range.

+1. Outside of that range you might as well stick with the halogens and just get colored ones, cuz you're not gaining any light output.

Haha I like how this turned into iPhone vs droid. I'm an iPhone guy myself. Love it. Anyway back to HIDs. I think I'm going with 6k headlights and 4k fogs. How's that sound?

Look into a projector retrofit. That will help slot with visability by concentrating the beam.

Are your fog lights 8k as well? If I got the 8k for my smoked headlights, what should I get for the fog lights (none tinted) to make them look the same?

I think I'm going to get black outs for my fogs. So they match my headlights. My fogs look awkward now without them.
