Default Piaa LED Parking Lights Installed

With my recent car serviced, I had Lexus install the new parking lights I got. It's the PIAA Super TERA Evolution 6600K. Here are the pics. Wanted see is your opinion about these.

For me, it seems to sort pair up with the Garax 8K HID which I have on it - sort blends in with the color transition.

I think it's too violet doesn't match the OEM HID, unless you plan to upgrade your HID to 6k or 8k. I had the same setup at first. The mismatched lights bugged me, so I switched to 5k leds. They match perfectly with our stock HID.

relaxfoo,

My HID light is using 8K bulbs from Garax. Hint of blue is more noticeable depending on the backlighting and the angle looking at it. Sometimes my eyes play tricks on me as if I were color blind and could not differentiate if it is really white or white with a hint of blue which the bulb is giving off. I also looked directly straight on and it appears white (blinding me in the process!).
