    Well it looks like I'll be going w/ the 6000's. From the pics it's the most natural appearing light.

    The 8000K is more of a bluish tint compared to the 6000K. The 10,000K is more of a purplish. For reference:
    Xenon HID Conversion Kits 3000k 6000k 8000k 10000k

    8000K LEFT 6000K RIGHT



    take a look at the ground at the very bottom of the pic. can see the 6000K side shows a lot more of the detail of the road, where the 8000K is sort of washed out bluish. The higher the K range, the less visible light output onto the road.

    4300K Xenarcs on the HD, and 5300K McCullogh on my stealth. I'll probably go with 5300 or 6000 on the HD's Xenarcs eventually just to get a bit more of a blue tint, despite the slight loss in light, but anything over 6K is too blue IMO. Starts to look like blue APC ricer bulbs lol
