Default 6000k and 8000k D4S hid bulbs

Just wanted to let you guys know that I just purchased a set of 6000k D4S bulbs for 110 shipped. The bulbs are japanese made at least by the description on the website i purchsed from. As many of you guys know that is alot cheaper then other places. The brand is called JDM and I will post pictures when I can with them installed. My initial impression is that they look alot better then the stock yellowish hid color. You can also purchase 8000k bulbs from there site since i know some mebers have been waiting for 6000k and above colors. I am just informing CL members that a new product has come out and I am no way affliliated with the seller of the D4S bulbs.

Did you specifically want more blue? I think the OEM temps are actually "brighter" even though they're lower temp.

Yes, the stock 4300k is brighter but gives off a yellowish color. I switched to 6000k for the nice blue color with a little sacrafice in brightness. The 6000k D4S however are still plenty bright plus I have my 5000k hid fogs too.
