Hey thanks for the quick response Lucky! Sometimes pictures dont tell the entire truth so better just asking you. What do you think of the 8000k? Are they still white with major hints of blue or do they basically look completely blue? I used to have the 6000k from 3Bsepcs in the car that got totaled. They were pure white with the occasional ever so light hint of blue when shined off of street markers and chrome bumpers. How do these 8000k look when shining off of street markers and chrome bumpers? Any input would be more than helpful to make my decision for the new ride.

wow really? u think the 6000k was white? when i put the 6000k in, they look worse than the stock bulbs. thats why i opt out for 8000k, much much better. they are really white. yea the pics i had in the post did show more blue tint than what the bulbs really are, it was just the angle of the camera. against signs its really bright white. i love how it looks in the dark. the close of pic in the post i showed u, give a pretty accurate display of the bulb.

They're whiter than stocks but you can still see a slight hint of yellowish color on the cutoff

Installed the 3Bspecs 8000k HIDs a couple days ago. Just wanted to share some pictures. I think my camera did a fairly good job of picking up the exact color of the bulbs. If I had to say they are probably just slightly less blue and more white than the pics.
