6000K Ultinons look soo much better. I have bought second set of bulbs just because of that. Originally went with 4300Ks and they where too yellowish.
In my other car I have OSRAM Xenarc bulbs with Hella ballasts - "stock". They look much better too then 4300K Philips bulbs, but 6000K Ultinons are better still.

if you drive long hours and travelling a lot, you would need 4300K
Blue tint cause fatique and you would need as much output as possible
I got D2S instead of D2R and I tried both 6000K and 4300K

Is there a ClubLexus special for XenonDepot 6000K for the SC400? My stock lights are super dim! I can barely see at night lol. They are super yellow too. I am ready to get some nice HID's.

How about the newer 50W HID kit instead of 35W?
50W DELIVERS +33% MORE LUMEN THAN THE 35W KITS, so 50W 6000K should look brighter than OEM 35W 4300K.
And 50W 4300 is still the brightest for sure.
I just copy&paste what I've found.

Hello,
Most HID kits on the market these days use a 50W ballast with a 35W bulb. This will shorten the life of the product by approx 25-30%.
50W HIDs are approx 25% brighter than 35W however thats not necessarily a good thing as it will be too bright for street use. 50W HID in a work light would be great however not necessarily for vehicle lighting.
