Blue HID lights = ignorant car owner. Anyone who has any common sense knows that blue isn't worth shit for driving. It is a shame that common sense isn't all too common anymore. Seems to be a rarity these days. When will natural selection take over again?

Blue is harder on your eyes than anything else - you'll fatigue faster when driving with blue lights. Like others have said, do yourself and all of us others on the road a favor and put in 4300K bulbs... or just put the stock ones back until your head is on straight.

Yeah, don't post pics on the web if you're not prepared for negative criticism... especially after asking us for our opinion. And you gotta remember: a LOT of car-people on the internet like a very specific look for their rides, and generally will hate on anything that isn't that particular look (e.g. "Oh my god, you put a spoiler on your car?! Ugh...")

That said, however, I think a lot of us were vocal against your mods because they DO affect other drivers. It's annoying as fuck to have those things either coming at you, or in your rear-view mirror. I'd much rather you'd gone and found some of those stick-on Maseratti vents from Pep-Boys and some Hello Kitty seat covers than those damn HID's.

Blue light is used mostly to tell what color things are. You DO NOT have the same depth perception with blue that you would white or even green light. and you DO NOT have superior visibility in blue light to yellow - the only reason you might see any better is because it is brighter.

You're blinding other drivers, whose night vision is completely wrecked by that stupid blue color. They ought to be illegal.
i think blue is illegal, in the vehicle code book, you cannot have blue or red lights in the front as they are reserved for da POPO
