New light in 2k2 hids assembly *pics*

I swapped the parking light from my hids to a Polarg M4. Sure as hell matches the d2r pretty well. Here's some before and after pics.






I also order some PIAA Xtreme White H3 (in the mail) for the fogs to compliment the hids and polarg and to take away the nasty yellow light. I heard these were the best match so I got them. I'll post so pics when I put these on.
I don't know what to choose for the high beam (9005) that will match the rest of the lighting. Any suggestions?

Enjoy the pics.

Polar G's

I just did the same thing last night to our 02Max - PolarG M4's look a lot better.

I was going to go with the Sylvania Silverstars for high beams and fogs, but others have said they are too yellow. The pics I've seen of them don't look too yellow to me though.

I might try the PIAA lights instead. Haven't decided yet really.

I have the Silverstars in my hi-beams. I like them. Looking at it from outside and 15 feet in front of the car, they are a good match. If I pull up against a light colored wall, the hi-beams have a bit of yellow....but who's gonna be standing between my front end and that wall???

I'm not too sure if I want to go with Sylvania because I tried the high beam Cool Blue series and they were nothing blue at all. They just look like real bright halogens, a bright yellow. I'm going to do a search on ebay and see what I can come up with. I'll post my results shortly.

Polargs are the best lights to match the HIDS. I am running them in all 4 corners and parking lights. I run the PIAA super plasma's for the fogs. Always get compliments on my lights because they match so well at night!

Get the Sylvania's there the closet halagen bulb that will match the HIDS in our cars. I ran them in Twin turbo Z and everybody thought i was running HIDS in my car because they gave off a bluish purple look at diffrent angels. But then again my Z had projector beams too...so i am sure that helped with the effect.
