• 10,000K = dark blue (less visible light more color)
• 8,000K = blue
• 6,000K = blue-white
• 5,000K = white (peak light output)
• 4,300K = white (peak light output OEM color temp)
• 3,000K = gold-yellow (JDM yellow)

projectors tend to dull the light source.

some car's projectors have very nice output and don't dull the light at all.

clear, bright and beautiful cutoff line.

I use 8000K on my low beams, they don't seem to attract attention from the Police as they are not as bright and dont have as much glare as the whiter 4000K-6000K.
