i was gonna go for 6000k, but my friend did me a favor and bought me 8000k... lol. It does the job, and i can say im happy with them, i can see sooooo far ahead, and theyre not even angled high

35W 5K here love the pure white :)

Looks more professional and less tacky, especially on our 6th gen sedans, its really easy to go over board on some of these mods.

I kinda want matching 35W 5K fog lights too :D

the best I've seen in person has to be either

5000k lows
3000k fogs

or

5000k lows
5000k fogs

you'd think 6000k would look nicer, but 5000k has this nice purple and white fringe to it as it washes light onto the ground.

Yeah remember to re-aim your headlights when you install them or you'll get high-beamed everywhere you go lol. Also, if you find that there is too much glare, you can slap some ebay eyelids on, they get rid of a large amount of unnecessary glare. I have 35w 6k btw.
