Go with XenonDepot hid kit on stock housings.
Under $400.

If you have time, go look for used projectors and do retro fit.

Stay with white color. Blue and purple will just get you a ticket and off they come.

PIAA H4 SUPER PLASMA GT-X The new GT-X provides an exclusive purple low beam and an Xtreme White high beam. And if that weren't enough! PIAA has added a purple colored top coat giving the headlamp a purple look even when the lamp is turned off. Save yourself some money and get these. I have em and they give a yellowish/purplish glow.

The halogen bulbs only last for 6 months to a year (average), So, every year you will spend roughly 200-300$, and thats just for halogen

Why not spend 300-400$ for HID which will outlast your car?
