But the color...perfect! Definitely noticably whiter than stock. No blue.
Must get for people with 06-07 headlights!

I have to agree that the Phillips 4300K (85122+) does give out the best output compare to any other bulbs out there. However, it comes with a price!!! It gives off a yellow hue which makes your lights not looking 100% pure HID compare to say a BMW/Acura. I am planning to upgrade the color to 6000k or 6500k because the yellow hue is starting to bother me the more I look at it. Last week I was side by side with my buddy's 2005 Acura TL and his HID was whiter and has a nicer cut-off with a hint of blue/purple. I must say Honda/Acura makes pretty dam nice projectors because they are so sharp and colorful compared to our G. But anyways I will post up some pics once I upgrade the bulbs to 6000-6500k. Any sugggestions in what brand I should go for? I was thinking in the lines of Phillips or Kaixen bulbs.

And its crazy how 'halogen' the stock bulb color looks.

Originally I didn't think much about our HID's until I was side by side with my Buddy's TL and my HID looked Yellow like it was halogen on steriods!!!
After that day, I start noticing other car's HID's and other G's and all the G I noticed are very yellow compare to other cars. The nicest one I have seen are the S2000's and TSX. I wish our HID's was just like that. I guess it can happen to switch out our blurry lenses compare to theirs...LOL!!!
