D2S HID bulbs
D2S HID bulbs
I am rather uneducated when it comes to light bulbs and their color temp. rating. What are they typical colors for each temp, and what output is best for driving? Im thinking 6k... Where is a good place to buy some D2S bulbs? Thanks in advance!

best output for lighting is your stock 4300k Bulbs (white)
I wanted a better look so I put in philips 6000k Bulbs (blue/white).
Anything over 6000k starts to get bluer but you lose alot of light output.
D2S and D2R are the same bulbs except the D2R has a stripe on the bottom to prevent glare in reflector housing (2003-2005 G35) while D2S is designed for projector housings (bmw, Honda S2000, 2006 G35 coupe).

philips 6000k ultinons all the way... they look great and while you may lose some light output, they're still bright as hell.
