There's a big difference between pure white with a hint of blue hue (4300k bulbs) and these that are at 10,000k which are actually blue. It reminds me of the kids who stick blue bulbs in their stock housings.
No new or expensive car comes with 10,000k bulbs. Why? Because they are ineffective at lighting up the road compared to a brighter, whiter light at 4300k.
So yes, when I see a blue bulb, I think cheap ricer, but that's just me.

The only part of an expensive car with projectors head light that is blue is at the cutoff. You can get some really beautiful colors at the cutoff if done right. Theres also plenty of room for two projectors, of you choose small ones, but why?
This is from my first setup. The light was 5300k, as close as i could find to factory for these projectors.
this is the best pic i can find of my current setup, Mine is on the left, you can see the light is white. My buddies is on the right, i installed my old setup in his. You can see the difference between 4300 and 5300 easily. You can also see that there is no "high beam" bulb.
