hint of blue = bad lighting. I have Sylvania silverstars and I think they're great. Much brighter and whiter than stock.

Keep the stock bulbs if you want bright lights that you can see at night.

Try the Headlight Upgrade Harness by APC then buy any high wattage bulb. Usually Nokya or PIAA Super Plasma GT-X Type bulb (awsome light). OR go way crazy and just spend 5 ballz on a HID system.

Stock or HID imo. Just make sure it's a white kit and not blue, or you're gonna get pulled over the first day.

thought those were the best ones cause they just plug together. There is a site that shows you how to make one from relays and such. I'll post the link if you're interested. Oh and I have hid lights.
