Depends. Most people put blue HID's and don't bend the squirrel finders so it's a nice big blue glare monster coming at you. It's kinda obvious...
Hey, hey, hey, what if I want longer bulb life but lower lumens? Lol! =P

8000k and up is just annoying and pointless. Can't even see the road with that color temp!

In Hawaii we have what's called a Safety Check that has to be done every year....they check brakes, tires, headlights, etc....if one doesn't pass safety inspection the car registration cannot be renewed....I have shitty luck and it would be me to get a ticket or not pass safety check...

Are LED headlights really OK for low beams? Comparison pictures.

If mine can pass, you shouldn't have any issues. Attachment 101605Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1422687101.536461.jpg

I'm assuming you have HID's!
Did it affect new car warranty with Servco?

I used the stock headlight housings and then retrofitted mini h1 projectors and matchbox projectors. I'm using 2 relays and 4 ballasts and bulbs, all morimoto. I am sure that the warranty for this set of headlights is void. I do however still have my complete stock headlight assembly in my garage. If you would like to see some of the options out there as far as lighting goes, feel free to hit me up.
