Day running light and HID on standard CU2

[leo]

i think CU2 has same coloured filters to splits the colours too.

because i saw cu2 luxury's headlight from different shows blue sometime

and my friend told me my light sometime shows white sometime blue.....

no, that's another instance of chromatic abberation.

u know how when you shine a light through the triangle and it splits the colours??? it's the same as that with projector lenses.

cu2 does have projector lenses, with clear cut-off line

but not bright as 1998 Honda Accord with 6000K Audi TT projector retrofit on that page ur post above

why? just becasue 8000k or 6k?

Sorry my question may have been answered on some post, but i wanted to know how bright the stock HID's are for the CU2... Are they 4300K? 5000K much brighter?

[denot]

4300, but this doesnt tell u how bright it is.

Cheers Denot..

Maybe i'll just try the 5000K and see how they go.

Kelvin is only measuring the colour. 4300 is white with a bit yellowish, 6000 like mine is white, while 8000 is bluish.
If you dont want too bright, get the 35W bulbs, not the 50W

The images do no justice to what you see in real life - you can't compare two images.

I'm planning to get a HID kit when my car arrives

just wondering how hard is it to fit it?

I'm planning to get it from JDMYard for $245 with 5 years warranty

Thinking of getting 8000k but scared that cops might give me a hard time
