I'm waiting for a reply to my email, he usually does it within a few hours, but i didn't email him till late last night. But anyways, i think this pic is the best one that shows the real color of the bulbs:

if you see, the stock light is fairly white already but has a little yellow, and the 6000k is just very white. For some reason when i take a pic w/o flash, i guess it's catching the cutoff which has a slight blue to it, but i don't see it in person for some reason

Thanks a lot for the information and help disgookonfiya. I see here on his website he has HID Single Xenon Bulbs (Pair) and D2S HID Bulbs (pr). Im assuming the correct ones for our cars is the D2S HID Bulbs (pr)? Whats the difference?

d2r bulbs have a glare shield. they sent me d2r bulbs before ill take a pick. they also have the groove cut on the opposite side then d2s. they are made for reflector housings like older TLs. projector head lamps like ours use d2s

Ok, update, yesterday i really didnt get to drive around and everything around was white, today i just drove home from work (8pm) and judging by all the reflections i saw, there is a slight hint of blue in the 6000k's. Not much but the road looks kinda whitish blue, and reflection off truck's chrome bumpers had a hint of blue in it. If you want blue, i still say 8000k is the way to go, but 6000k is good enough for me.

This is EXACTLY what I wanted to hear! Just placed my order for a pair of 6000k. Thanks for the help once again!

told ya, it's OVERNIGHT.... as long as you order i think before 3-4PM CST they are able to get it to the UPS guy and ship it overnight. So order early in the week and you should be fine, Friday orders won't be received till Monday. Thursday afternoon orders might end up being shipped Friday so get it in early.

Sweet just got mine in the mail. On the base of the bulb, it says D2C though. Did he send me the wrong ones?
