HID bulbs (not kits) recommended brands/dealers?

So, my 8000ks have always sucked with light output (duh) and I'm completely over the look. The only reason I got them is because the 5000ks I ordered didn't match in color, refunded 6000ks for free which were basically green so I wanted to spend basically nothing on a different brand (Xentec) and got 8000ks from them. They actually look as I expected and wasn't surprised with the light output so I was satisfied..for about a month. I have the ballasts and all that but can anyone recommend a WHITE replacement set for cheap, bulbs only. (under $25 if possible) NEED PICS!

most of ebay brands will have the same off color output imo . save the $$ a little and get the morimoto kits and you will be happy with the result.

the ballast hold an important role on the kit as well

The ballasts themselves seems pretty nice and legit. Extremely slim, solid, metal ballasts. They're universal so any other brand should swap right in. About to put my stockers back in today just to see the difference in light output and see what I really want out of my next set.
