Xenondepot XtremeHID 6500K kit pics
Unfortunately, these pics are from an Infiniti. Most Lexus have HID low beams as standard. My Dad's EX35 came without HIDs so I bought the XenonDepot kit and installed it for him. I bought an XtremeHID 6500K upgrade kit from XenonDepot.com.
The kit is very high quality and made entirely in Japan. 6500K is white with a slight blue tinge, which looks great, but is supposed to be less bright than 4300K OEM spec. I took a bunch of photos, and I found they perform extremely well, and are arguably a match for brightness to my Mom's Lexus ES350 OEM factory-included HIDs which are 4300K Philips.
These pics are taken outside my house, and there is no street lighting or external lighting from the house. All lights on the house are off, so the light you see is entirely from the car. You will notice the standard projectors which carry over from the stock Halogen lamps, provide an excellent cut-off line. The aim may seem high against the garage door, but that's because the driveway is on a hill and slopes up.

In addition here is a comparison to my OEM Lexus Xenon HID headlamps to illustrate how good the XenonDepot kit is. As you know OEM Lexus system is Philips ballasts with Philips Xeneco 4300K D4S bulbs.
First pic shows Lexus on left, and Infiniti aftermarket on right.
Second pic shows the Infiniti lighting up garage
Third pic shows the Lexus lighting up the garage for comparison of brightness and color. You can see the 4300K is similar intensity to the 6000K, however it is much more effective on the darker surface of the floor than the 6000K bulb.

Also I've ordered stuff to upgrade my own lighting on the GS460 when I get back home:
- Philips Ultinon 6000K D4S low-beams
- Philips Crystalvision Ultra high-beam/DRL
- Philips Silvervision turn signals
- Putco 360 LED White 194 LED parking lights
- XenonDepot Volt Digital 6000K fogs
