Pictures of my Yellow HID....headlights
#16
are these yellow d2r bulbs or yellow 9006 bulbs in a non-hid headlamp?
also - are the bulbs tinted yellow in color or is the yellow merely produced by the chemicals within? the reason why i ask is because yellow HID bulbs come in two types.
1) yellow chemicals within AND yellow tinted glass. result: jdm fog light yellow
2) just yellow chemicals within. result: european gt racing yellow.

Yup that's right and the ONLY reason why these race cars have yellow headlights is so that people can identify the cars when racing at night. Since there are 4 classes of cars racing in these 12 & 24 hour long races all at the same time, it gets difficult to identify who is racing who in the same class.
The LeMans LMP class cars are the faster class and have clear headlights.
The LeMans GT class cars are the slower class and can be identified by their yellow headlights.
I don't prefer yellow headlights either and since the "slower" LeMans cars have yellow headlights, I personally would prefer to be associated with the faster cars with the clear headlights.
