IMO too blue/purple. You should go lower in the range towards white.

5000-6000k is perfect.
Anything below/higher is ugly and diminishes output.

OEM bulbs are 4300K - i'd personally never go higher than 5000k. After the initial break-in period, HIDs that are between 4300k-5000k provide the right balance between looks and output.
