Yea, I may change it out to a more white/blue color/ The dingy yellow never turned me on. Glad the car has a nice HID kit. Plus the blue reflective rim around it increase the blue hue. Very nice touch. Just wish the usdm model had the led running lights.

Yeah, I saw the LED running lights and they're amazing. But yeah, it'd be great to know what type of bulb we have cause I'm dying to brighten that yellow up.

Anyone know what the kelvin value of the HID lowbeams are? Getting a Xenon kit for the fogs, and I want them to at least be close to the same color

I was thinking 8000K or 10000K?

factory is typically 4300k

8-10k would be super blue. I had 5500k on a previous car and it was white with a blue tint. Not ricer blue. Your right, the blue reflective projector rim does create a blue reflection and it's very nice.

just find bulbs that are super white xenon with a blue hue.

Here's a helpful chart. Hope it helps.

I'm mainly getting them to prevent the fog lenses from cracking in wet conditions and during the winter. Switching from 55W halogen to 35W xenons should do just that. At least I'm hoping. I think I will go with the 8000K and if I don't like it, I'll just put it on my Accord and get another one for the Z.

From that scale it looks to me like my Accord has 8000K or so. Should match nicely. If nothing else, the bulbs last longer then halogen. Thanks for the chart though

The Base model uses H11 halogen bulbs for the low beam.
