Angry I need some good blue headlamps dammit!!

I'm getting pissed off by guessing what products to buy and getting disappointed by them. I've wasted close to 100 bucks trying to find something that's worth a damn, but no luck!! I'm not gonna switch to HID...but i just want something that gives a nice bright blue color. My friend has some in his WRX... ... that he got from a friend. I had been asking for months for him to hook me up with a pair. But instead he gets a pair of them for his brothers shitty Mitsu Montero. So yeah, I need someone to tell me what's worth a damn. I'm tired of my heads and i need some HELP!!!

bright and blue are kinda an oxymoron when speaking about headlights...the more you move towards blue, the more you lose visibility, on the road at least. i suppose everyone driving towards you or in front of you will see that your headlights are blue. but whats the point when you can't see anything in front of you?...just my .02

not to mention any bulb that truly gives off blue light is illegal.

I like Sylvania's Superwhites to be hoenst but I just bought myself a snazzy HID kit which Im waiting on.

This is the way I looked at it

I spend abount 30 cdn on each silverstar bulb twice a year
thats 120 cdn a year

Impulse's HID kits have 5 year warrnety's on the bulbs, do the math. HID is finally affordable imo.

buy an 8000k kit if you really want blue but youll probably be pulled over

I got the 5000k kit wouldnt recommned going higher because you lose luminas, and hey isn't that what head lights are for brightness?
