PIAA = 2x Silverstar's price, are they 2x nicer?

The color on the Silverstars is 4000K while the PIAA'a appear to be 3800K color. Also, I keep hearing the PIAA blow pretty quick. Is it worth 2x the price? Does anyone have pics of the two side by side?

Go with the silverstars...then if one does blow, you can just go to the local auto parts store....Oh, and mine are fine after 6+ months

Piaa = brighter performance and more $$ (and looks if u get the correct style)
Silverstars = looks but no performance

Irish - Any chance you've got a pic of the Silverstars installed? How do they look next to the HiD's?
