get UV hids, then you'll be giving free tans to anyone standing infront of you. No seriously if your car didn't come with HIDs then don't put them in, too much glare and not enough light on the road.

If you want max light output or oem, then go for ones around 4300k. These ones tend to still be a little yellow.

6000k ones sacrifice some light output but is much more white and tends to have a tiny bit of blue.

8000k is pretty blue.

From ebay:

i got mine from ebay.. jst search for HID KIT XENON CONVERSION and it should come up. They come with a 1 year warranty and you just need to specify the bulb type and temperature u want.. takes about 5 days in shipping time..

- 6000K Crystal White / Very slight blue tint
- 6500K Crystal White / Purple tint
- 8500K Crystal White / Blue tint - 'ICE BLUE'

Some Manufacturers name their Kelvins differently.
As for Kaixen 6500k is white with a tint of purple, that is why its categorized near 6000k

Just launched the kit with discounts. Heres the link :)
