Default HID Look

Ok i bought a set of the silverstar bulbs but didn't get the look that i wanted, the blue tint in the HID systems, so this time i'd rather not waste my money on another set of light bulbs that aren't what i wanted. So i'm asking for your advice on what bulbs to buy that arent just some cheapy bulbs that wont last and dont have reasonable light output. I also have a set of KC driving lights (black) and was wondering if i could replace the bulbs in them to, very pricey, b/c it seems that the mixed color of the lights one of them wont work well, i believe the Kc's over the Truck lights. I would have bought the Kc titanium but i wasnt really into the HID look then, and now its obsesive. The bulbs that KC has to replace the KC's are 130 watt while the original's are 100 watt, will this cause a problem.

I've seen some pics of these bulbs on a f150 and the look good but cant figure out which on is the best and bluest
Lighter Blue i believe: http://www.luminicsbulbs.com/hyper_white.php
Darker Blue: http://www.luminicsbulbs.com/pure_blue.php

KC bulbs what i have now: http://www.kchilites.com/Bulb-100w-C...n-P131C27.aspx
Kc bulbs for the titanium series light: http://www.kchilites.com/Bulb-130w-I...e-P338C27.aspx

i have the GE halogen bulbs, and I actually replaced the blue bulbs I had with them, because the white light is much more usefull at night, much more clean

and people often flash their lights at me at night when i have the lo's on, then I flash them with the hi's and they fell like idiots....if that meens anything, lol

Just spend the money for the HIDs. Way more worthwhile than faking it

Yeah you can easily retrofit HID's into a KC light. I put 3000k in mine and absolutely love them.
