Default Do these headlight bulbs exist?

A while back I came across this "photo" online of a heavily modified (but quite likely photochopped) SC430:

Are those blue headlight bulbs legit or is this just a photochop job?

Oh, and how about those lights on the side-view mirrors?

Definitely photoshopped.

If you want blue headlights, use a higher temp HID bulb. 8k will be light blue-ish. 10k will be blue-ish. 12k will be purple-ish.

Yeah, I figured it was photoshopped. But has anyone out there modded their car with some similar blue lights? My SC430 is black and I'm thinking that this could look really cool, especially if paired with clear corners.
