i am getting the 2k2 hid's soon and i would like to know what color it is
it is very white with a slight touch of blue on bigdogjonx's car, but when i looked at kev's lights, they just look like normal lights, not hid's at all
so what color is it???
is it similar to any other hid's on other cars???
is it similar to the i30?

a few of my friends saw it on the road and said it did have a blueish tint to it

Hey,

1. Did you get my PM? The used Cattman y-pipe from Alberta is back 4 sale ... better get it soon ... it'll probably be easier 4 the seller 2 sell 2 u b/c the US borders are closed & a buyer from the US wouldn't get it.

2. Where'd u get the HID's from? Did u pay more than $380 for the pair?

I just saw a 2k2 with HIDs tonight. Looks great, definetly has a bluish tint to it.

It was probably the angle the picture was taken... take a look at pic #3 and #8. There is a very slight hint of blue.

Grr... Kev, if I had known you were going to install HIDs I would've bought your PIAA Plasmas... lol

If you use 80 watts, then those (80W bulbs) will be brighter.

It looks just straight white with a TOUCH of yellow. It is not like my VISION HID kit that I had with nice blue tint in it.

I will be changing soon to the 6000k HID bulbs to get that Audi/BMW look
