driving they look pure white and are super bright you dont see any blue while driving but if you do look at them just walking up to the car they do have a tint of blue to them.

also i do live off airport in the subdivision to the north of 4season's 2

I was thinking about getting some different foglights but i dont really ever use them so most likely i wont

P.S. forget the snow how about the fog today were you cant even see your car in the driveway.

The lights do look badass. I'm going to get the 8000k HID's soon, I like the blue tint to them. My parents have friends that live farther down your road, thought that street looked familer andthought I saw your car there before. I use my foglights all the time so when I get my HID'sI'm going to stick with my blue foglights, they won't be as bright, but will work until I get HID's for my fogs too. Yeah these fog sucks ***, I walked outside to run down to the gas station and was like god damn.Even hard to see thestreetlights

Look real good man. That kits been sitting in my trunk since christmas, I've been waiting for some decent weather here to put them on since I don't have a garage, but it just keeps snowing. Seeing yours in makes me want to brave the cold to put mine in though. It looks like you have the ballasts bolted to the metal bumper, did you have to drill holes for that? Any problems with them in the cold? I've read they take time to warm up to get bright in the cold.

i did have to drill holes and there is that 3m adhesive pad between the ballast and the bumper as a cushion. I mounted them there because in the directions it says to make sure they have room to "breath" or cool down so i thought that was the best place of any.

they might take 30 seconds to warm up if that and it has been 20 degrees here for the past week except this past saturday when it was 45 and that felt amazing (i am sick of winter)

Looking for update... how do you like them on a daily driver at night? Do they out perform stock headlight bulbs?

there is no comparison from the stock ones to the hids it is just amazing how bright they are.

How do they compare to the Silver Star lights?
