Great....a few things I noticed when I had ordered a set of d4s 6k bulbs was that in the daytime, I could definittely see a light purple hue to it. At night it seemed blue/purple. One light was a bit different from the other. So I am concerned about quality control on these things. Keep me posted, I am ready to order a set too

I have no problem with my set. Both headlights produce the same crystal/white color with a hint of blue/purple....Here is a pic of my headlights w/ Garax 6000K. And in my foglights I have a different set, but its also 6K. Different brands, but matches perfectly!

I used them on my IS350, and I have them now on my SC430.

Paired with Xenon Depot HID fogs, and they look great!!!

d4s for the headlights, and 9005 for drl. but you cant have hid drls, as they are the high beam at something like half power. unless you are talking about the parking lights, whichare 194 wedge. fogs are 9006. hidextra.com has a special for $60 for hids right now for the fogs.

after i get my coilovers, I'm going to work on lighting next I think.
garax 6000k lows, hidextra 3000k fogs, polarg m4 parking lights, and white puddle lights.
I probably wont mess with the drl. I want to have them turned off but scottsdale lexus said they cant do it.

so the polarg m4 parking lights matches well with the 6000K Garax?

Also, i believe I8ABMR was talking about what specific temperature of the bulbs you guys are running.
