Maybe it's time for some new bulbs and you could move up to 6000k on the temperature or stay with the 4300k temp bulb. Also, on a 8 year old car you may want to buff the headlight lens as they might be a little cloudy.

+1...color changes after some time....if the headlights/bulbs were never changed...id assume the color would change together...if ones different, the headlight or bulb was probably changed sometime during those 8 years..?...leaving one new correct color one and one old different colored one
