One thing I was a little worried about before buying this car was .. Did it have a sharp cut off? (I was unable to test since dealers close at night...

So I'd like to help with the night pics

I love it!!

I had stock xenon HID on the Audi. Changed to 5000K bulbs for the ultra white light. Lexus LED seems to be in the 5000K area.

I agree !! A lot of OEM HIDs of 4300k still seemed to be " yellowish " whether Lexus , Audi or MB IMHO ...... but the HIDs for the 3IS does look as if its closer to 5k

I believe the EU specifications of OEM HID is 4200K - 4500K. But you may install 5000K if you wish. Haven't seen any OEM with 5000K. Above 5000K is illegal.
