People like to waste money on stupid crap just to say they have it.

"Yeah man, I have HID"

*who cares*

There's no way you can have HID bulbs without the whole HID setup. Its not just a bulb, the whole system of projection is different. You have a PIAA that imitates HID by putting out higher wattage and tinting the light blue. That comes nowhere near the intensity of HID, nor its distinctive color.

I keep saying this over and over...

On top of that, PIAA Xtreme whites aren't bright for shyt. I had to put my Sylvannia's back in. You evidently don't know how bright real HIDs are, let alone stock brightness even if you were driving with your high beams on - HID is still brighter.

This appears to be a good HID system.

the hella ones are the one i am considering, from what i understand, hella is an awesome company to buy lights and such. i can't wait to get my hid.. i remember there was a groupbuy on groupbuycenter for the hella ones 480 dollars shipped

and about the fake hid crap, personally, i got so sick of people claim they have hid, why don't you just keep your 40 dollar bulbs to yourself?

K2 from the looks of the outside is the most purple but it still produce a bright white light on the ground.
