I have Bi-Xenons on my Lexus IS with currently 6000K bulbs and the color is white. Im looking to get a pink or purple color. I think this is the best look, and its different from other peoples setups and its futuristic. I like to be unique. Can our current setup in the housing take these high temperatures for these bulbs ? Is this actually UV light ? I do know the lumens do decrease. But at this site called www.hidlook.com all the lumens remain the same, just higher temperatures and colors. I would like to get this look. Do anyone know any good brands where I can change the current white setup to a pink or purple look ? I would also like to do this to the fogs without converting to Xenon. Any good halogen bulbs that can make fogs pink or purple ?


Heres what I am talking about

no halogen bulb can make it look like the HID's...no matter which bulb you try... i had these before.... unless your getting hid's on the bottom to match...don't try anything other wise... just going to be a waste of money. yes it would work in our headlights. but just want to let you know...this "unique" look is not so "unique" anymore. i dislike the look now.....just my personal opinion. but hey...it's your car... i hope it turns out the way you want it to.

Futuristic looking? Sure, if by futuristic looking you mean you'll get pulled over 5 minutes after you have them on.

Sorry, but I am not digging the color. Maybe if you paint your car Pink, it might be good.

bagwell

uh why do you need HID to have pink or purple bulbs?

14000K,15000K, 30000K -- isn't that kind of defeating the prupose of HID?

ReLexin

yea i don't think you will be able to obtain the look you are trying for without HIDs.

Yeah, I have seen them around the town. I don't like the setup, but I don't mind people enjoying it.

It is a free country, but watch out for the police.

Most 10k and up kits are illegal

i think that the car is using some kind of pink lenses to make it pink.

They might install those for show only. You probably wouldn't be able to see much with those.
No bulb can replicate HID, they can't burn hot enough and they will just burn through your harness.

Technically, ANY aftermarket HID kit is not street legal - has to do with the lack of an auto-leveling mechanism and to a lesser degree, the light output of the headlamp. Long story short: if it's HID and not factory-installed, it's not street legal. The more important question in this case is, "How likely are you to be pulled over with something that draws so much attention?" 8000k is pushing it, and beyond 10,000k you're almost guaranteed to be pulled over and ticketed.
