Love the mini mods. It's the little subtle things that can make the car pop! Here is mine

they look great, are those from Maxspeed? I bought the LED exterior lights from maxspeed and have been considering the HIDs as well (Phillips 6000K)

How well do the HIDs match the LED parking lights in person? Do they look solid white or blue? unfortunately the stock HIDs now look too yellowish compared to the LED lights

thanks!

The headlight are not from maxspeed but rather as a gift from a friend. However I do have maxspeed LEDs and they match near perfect to the 6000k. They are def not white but I would say white with a blue hue. Hope that helps

thanks for the quick reply Edwin

They do look great, I've read that the 6000K put out less light than the 4300K OEM bulbs. Have you noticed any reduction in light output going to the Phillips?

It's prob psychological but I think the light beam is "crisper" with 6000k
