buying an HID with 4K lamps is almost like fitting those common cheap xenon bulbs hehe, its too warm. go at least for 5K or 6K, these are still white looking rather then blue. see it in the image below :wink:

i have 8000k and apart from actually being illegal they are rather blue but its what i wanted, i would recommend for yourself 6000k its the factory set ones so it will basically be the same as gti's and are a pure white light, 40000k i think you would be a bit dissapointed as its more a warm white than a bright white

6k is the way forward mate - its a nice crisp white with a hint of blue which works on any car well, especially the darker colours

Good choice dude,i would never go above 6000 Kelvin as anything above looks silly and too blue.I would buy something closer to 4500-5000K but again this is my personal opinion and you've already made you r mind up haha.
