Question Need Help picking H1 bulbs...

Since the car is getting painted next week and the headlights will be out, I want to replace the bulbs. I recently put in Silverstar H1 low beams, and Silverstar H4 Foglights/high beams. I don't really like the look so I am swapping them out. I just purchased the Luminics H4 Yellow bulbs for the fogs... but now I need to figure out what to do with the low beams.

Either the PIAA Extreme Whites or the Luminics Titanium Whites. I don't care about the small price difference. I just need the brightest light possible, a color that doesn't look stock, and something that will give it a nice look.

Looking for opinions on these 2 choices... Or any others someone can recommend. I realize this could go in a different forum location, but I know I'll get the most response here since it a bulb only on the sedans (I think)

Thanks !!

i know PIAA's are good. Heard from other people that they were good and have seen them and they are bright as all heck. I got the Pilotxenon 8000k's in both the fog's and the headlights. I wanted a little aftermarket look but nothing to attract cops attention. They are gorgeous, let me tell you. Give off a BRIGHT light with a hint of blue and gives it that aftermarket look I was looking for. I also put some spark blue daytime running lights in the fog lights and it looks SICK! I highly suggest the pilots but PIAAS are very good as well

I was doing some research for H4 lights and read that the PIAA xtreme whites are more purplish. The PIAA Xtreme Force is what you need.

I've used tons of these on various cars and various bulb types.
XTreme Whites will generally give you a white close to our xenons look.
I personally always go with the XTreme Whites.

XTreme Force will give you more of a BMW xenon look to it.

What I don't want it the ricer blue look, BMW blue look is ok.... I saw another 03-04 exactly like mine, but had the HID headlights... They looked kinda pinkish/purple. Is that what the XTreme Whites would look like? Or are they more of just a white?
