WE both purchased 6000k kits, i purchased my 6000k to get that purplish look...but i obviosuly didnt
Now which one is the true 6000k KIT?

The one with the non-working links?

 

Relax....check it again

wow those are different...what's the problem now umnitza?

 

Different camera setting?

 

Aiming issue?

 

no....the colors are different...the bulbs said 6000K and they are different colors

These aren't projectors

 

The stock fogs can be aimed too.

 

So, that doesn't mean it isn't an aiming problem. Standard fogs can be aimed also, right?

 

But projectors would change colors. Aiming fogs would only reduce or inhance glare.

 

hahahaha, SAME CAMERA>>>>SAME SETTING>>>>SAME 6000k bulbs......aiming only changes colors on projectors ......

Another thing, the pic from Polaks car was taken from a higher angle then the pic taken of Cubanatos car. The different angles can definately play with colors. Now if it's like that in person,

 

You know what, I'm color blind so I really didn't notice the color difference as much as I noticed the light that was produced onto the road in front of the cars. If you look at the light difference, the second picture appears to be brighter directly in front of the car, whereas the first picture has glare directly in front, yet also light further on the road surface. JMO, I'm probably wrong though. Don't call me a newbie.

 

Those are some bright *** Red-Xs. :P

 

I see 'em now. I think Cubanato has Umnitzas.

 

they are at different angles, but you can clearly see that cubans fogs are whiter and bluer than polaks, theyre both bright as hell, but polaks fogs are purplish, are they the same brand? i dont know why, but they are different color.

 

Cubanato got the new set of 6000k hid kits, umnitza said that many people complained about the 6000k bulbs being too purple so he asked the manufacturer to change them to a more blue/white hue instead of purple. Hope this helps.

 

Then they aren't 6000K anymore if they chaged the color. They must be selling 5000Ks as 6000Ks. Cubano clearly asked for the EXACT ones I bought because he wanted that purple tint.

Anyway His are white/blue and mine are white/purple. You can see better in person.

 

According to the Kelvin scale 6000k is supposed to look like what Cubanato got. Polak's light output is a lot closer to 8000k. Cubanato has true 6000k output.

 

No company makes the same colors so that can be true. I still like mine more.

 

Yeah, my boy Goldmax has 8000k hids on right now...and they look exactly like yours. Color difference is almost non-existent.

 

But one thing i don't get is why are my HIDs so bright compared to "other" 8000Ks that are so dim...I can drive with only my fogs and DDEs and still see everything.

Mine are XTec by the way....what are gold's?

 

I'll ask him when gets back, not sure.

 

Yeah...the truth of the matter is they both are 6000k Umnitza Kits......but they are different
Which doesnt make sense to me?
but i might just end up sticking with these since Xtec doesnt make purpleish anymore

I like Cubanato's fogs better.

 

contact umnitza and ask them if they still have the puprle 6000k kit in stock and if you could switch. The reason im guessing people complained about the kit being to purple is because a 6000k kit shouldnt give out that much color. But if you like em keep em.

 

i like the blue 6000k. Looks more similar to the Philips Ultinon 6000k. Purple is more of an 8000k look.

 

i also like the blue better than the purple, but thats just my opinion...

 

Yeah when I talked to Umnitza he said that they had the color wrong with the purple on the 6000k. They are supposed to be more on the blue side. Cubanato's look just like my 6000k hids.

 

The higher the K the less output it has. You are paying for the color not the performance. I had 8000k's and my stock give more light. My next ones are 6000k's

 

That's not what I am saying. I have great output and they are supposedly 8000Ks....my stock light don't produce as much light.

 

Your lights are not 8000k, but there is now way that they produce more light then your stock. No hid bulbs rated higher then 4300k can produce more light. The only way that a bulb will produce more light then stock is if you buy a 50watt ballast.

 

Sorry but you're wrong. The pics do not lie. Look at Polak's pic in the first post. You cannot tell me that stock fog lights put out more light then that. Also remember when Igor posted a video of him driving at night with just his HID fogs and DDE's on? You could not do that with the stock fogs.

 

i think he was referring to the stock HID headlights...not the stock fogs.

 

^^^ then that explains a whole lot

 

There is no explanation on this forum that actually is the truth yet.

6000K can be 6300K or 5800K <-- both fall into the normal variance of manufacturing and as long as the bulbs are the same color together, then they fit the criteria.

MOST people were complaining that the 6000K put out too much 6300K light, we dialed down the factory specs to 5800K. 500K is a difference that isn't normally noticeable except when two cars are side by side.

The current formulation is closest to the original Philips Ultinons on which they were based and that is the final formulation that we liked.

There is no *difference* between one scale from one MFG and another. It's just how closely they adhere to the APPROPRIATE LABELING for each kit. People CAN be color blind.

 

Cubonato, please send back the H3 6000K that seemed to show up white overall, we need to have those back immediately.

 

Umnitza, the ones that I got from you are blue. Im not complaining because I like the look, but is that the way they are supposed look now???

Comparison with stock:

 

yes, exactly.

 

Thanks for the quick response. Oh and by the way I do love the HIDs and I get a lot of compliments on them.
