Talking Before and After PlatinumR Super Slim HIDs

Big Thanks to HID_Powerhouse ! These are by far the Best HIDs i have ever purchased. Compared to my previous HIDs these are 10x brighter and whiter and have no flickering when starting up. Installation was a breeze and even i did it with ease and I'm an air head when it comes to this stuff. its like you are driving with your brights on at night , they are so bright. and i havent gotten the brights from anyone yet so the dont go that far up into peoples Range of View. GREAT PRODUCT AND SO WORTH THE MONEYY !!!

Top Picture is Stock Headlights and Bottom Picture is with the Installation of the PlatinumR Super Slim HID Conversion kit 6000K

The PlatinumR Ultra Slim HID kit is one of the best ones out there and you will not find the same kit offered by other sellers and re-sellers. Big thanks to our product engineers for their hard work and raising the bar for high quality HID kits. =)

Since it appears that the top picture was taken from outside the car and the 2nd picture was taken from inside the car......truthfully it looks like picture #1 was brighter...............

I believe the 2nd photos that he took may have been when he first fired up the HIDs. HIDs start up with a blue colour and tends to settle in within half a minute, showing its true colour.

I think 6000k HIDs would be best of both worlds, maintaining practical for improved visibility while being differentiated on the road from other cars. Definitely noticeable that headlights have been updated =)

Really? lol.
well i guess heres a free bump for you.

if people arent commenting, its probably because they have no comment on another set of pnp HID kit. with pictures that really dont show the difference from any other HID kit that is out.
or they are refraining from calling you out for not retrofitting.

I like the 6000k color but what about the fogs? I would like matching 6000k fogs too if I'm going to swap the HIDs

I guess everyone is waiting for Scion to release foglamp housing and wiring kit so that people can start installing foglights on their FR-S and upgrading to LEDs and HID fogs. We are anxiously waiting and hope it will be soon
