You guys rock!! I should have them in by Thursday, I can't wait!!!
@Splitfire: Where did you get the tinting material for the fog lights. I want to go the same route but am trying to save up to put the fog light closer together, I love that look. Any pix in day time?

I personally like a little blue in my HID's...if I had them I'd probably go with 8000k all round
Some say it's ricer, but I say neh, a little color too stand out just a bit more is alright. I like blue, it's a good color.
That said, after 8k, it becomes too blue and starts to lose brightness and REALLY draws negative attention. Not hatin' on anyone...no flame

I was leaning towards the 6000K for the hint of blue but found a few youtube video and noticed that the 5000K had just the tint of blue I wanted. Plus, a very blue light would look kind of funny with yellow fog lights, the route I want to go.
Spitfire, was the tint easy to install?? How did you cut the shape perfectly??
