Different Temp Hid Pics, Please?!!?!? I'm debating what temp I want for HIDS. It's either 8,000; 10,000; or 12,000. So if you could please post night pics of your HIDS (camaros preferably) and let me know what temperature bulb you are using I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!

The K number is not the brightness. It is the color. As the color temperature (K number) goes up, the light gets bluer then purpler. Also, as the color temperature increases (K number goes up) the lumen output decreases (the actual measure of light). Therefore 4300K HID (OEM color) is brighter than an aftermaket 10000k. Also, our eyes are least sensitive to blue light, which is another reason why 4300k is better.

those temps are rice rice rice, if you're going to do HIDs....3000k (almost like the ALMS GT1 Vettes..almost) 4300k is the same temp for OEM, 5000k is a nice white with some blue. Plus all of those are the best for visibility.
Check my sig pic...4300k with projectors in the headlights and 3000k in the foglights. No it's not a photoshop either

Not a Camaro, or a car for that matter, but I do have HIDs. This is my 2002 Silverado.
My low beam lights are 8000K and my high beams are 4300K. I also have done the 4-High mod on my truck so whenever I turn on my high beams the lows stay on.
