I just ordered a ton of hyper white bulbs and one for my dome a few days ago. I installed all the sidemarkers, parking light bulbs last night. It looks good but it looks a little bluer than I expected. It does match alot better than what I had before. I'm gonna do the hyper white LED dome light and license plate lights in a few hours. I'd decribe my hyper whites as artic blue.

White

White ones are better.
..
By the way, I bought my 2001 Maxima SE for 10,650 from a dealer. It was 78350K, metallic dark grey color, has Sunroof, 8way pwr driver, 4way pwr passenger heated leather seats, 17 inch wheels, relatively new tires, traction control, bose stereo, automatic climate control, auto dimming rear view mirror, carpeted trunk lid.

I may not have had the best deal. But is it a good deal??

That sounds pretty nice. Where would you suggest getting hyper white bulbs, any auto store basically? I don't mind the bluish lighting, anything thats brighter than what I have now.
