Question Question for all w/HID's

have you found a blinker or parking light bulb that somewhat matches? i have 6000k purple and have gone through a couple different sets of lights to get a close match - my latest is the piaa xtreme white (they say closest to HID look) and they still dont even slightly match they look a lil green/blueish. lease:

i thought polarg made a purplish looking one, if not them try looking up raybrig. if all else fails put finger nail polish on the bulb.

i've got polargs. they're nice, but they wont quite match HID's. i'd say just get amber turn signals so they dont look like a lame attempt at matching.

Ummm he was joking. Who the hell would spend $500 for HID parking lights if they even made such a thing.

I don't know of any company that is making true HID parking light bulbs. The smallest know HID kits are the ones for fog lights because most use H1.
