Anyone has HID problems?

Is anyone has HID problems? such as when turn on the light, came out beatiful blue color first, then became white, last became kindda yellow.
I used to install 30000k HID on my c230 b4. super bright and blue, very nice.
and i just order sets of 30000k bulbs for my G. let's see how nice it will be.

thats normal, if you want a nice color without loosing too much output you might wanna get some 6000k bulbs, btw i believe the G's stockers are 4000k so going to 3000k it will be even more yellowish...

isn't 30000k purple or somewhere along those lines? If you want white go with 5000k-6000k. bluish-white, then go 8000k.

yea shoot the farthest into the eyes of the people in front of you. but as from where you are sitting, i doubt it'll be as bright.

well yeah its just color and nothing else, why dont you just put some leds in there and turn off the hid?? are you planning on driving at night, raining?? man thats dangerous, i have 6600k and at times i wish they were brighter (not color, but brightness like the stockers)

well, actully it's not dangerous at all. I know the light is bright, so I adjust the lamp more down. so it will never bother other drivers. and for me it's brighter and safer.

well if you say so... btw im not talking about blinding other drivers, im talking about you will not have much light output at night, its even worse when raining, you will just have pretty colors, search it it has been discussed many times, but if thats what you like then go for it
