Default New headlight bulbs! (d'oh @ 56k)

Thanks to RaynArt for the suggestion on the bulbs, they looks absolutely awesome! These pictures don't do it justice, mainly becuase my camera STINKS and likes to take blurry pictures in the darkness. I get crystal clear pics in the daytime, but take off the flash and all I get is blur, but you'll get the idea . Anyhow, the bulbs are Nokya Arctic White 9006XS. They say that they are 7000k color temp, but its never as high as they say. I don't care though, because I love the look! Here are the pics+ a few night pics of all my lights (I've never seen my own car's tails at night LOL, but isnt that light on the inside of the reverse lights supposed to light up with the tails? It just seems that the corner lights alone being lit up like mine are doesn't provide enough light in the tails.)

Tails:

cool ish. looks uber clear in the pic with the closeup of the housing. i think the camera would be fine at night, just get urself a $15 tripod and have fun

one more thing, did you take out the bulb for the parking light like i did? just curious since you asked about it before.

You ever find it hard to judge headlights from a picture? Aside of some changes in tone sometimes, i can't tell a dang thing ever.
