I installed after market HID's on my Headlight and Foglight. 6000K for Headlight and 8000K for Foglight. Looks damn good to me!
I just gotta get rid of thatnasty yellow parking lights and yellow side marker bulbs.

Awesome! How much was the setup?

Did you do the work yourself?

Whoa, turn off those bright lights! NICE, Good job. One question, why 6000k for headlights and 8000K for fogs?

I was wondering the same, from the pics, the fogs look so much brighter than the headlights, it's doesn't look right, it looks like you need to reverse it, the headlights brighter looks better IMO. But congrats to getting it installed.

thanks guys !

oh and the reason why i got 8000K for the fog is... in the picture it might look its brighter. but its not. its more blue I have to say. after 6000K, the lights looses brightness. so thats why I kept 6000k for the headlight.

Thanks
