Default Pic Request: Illuminated Door Sill in Blue or White

I tried searching but I wanted to see what it looks like at night. Since Sewell brought back the Group Buy for the Door Sills I can't make up my mind.

Thanks!

Blue looks good but White looks great. Guess it depends on what you like. Can't go wrong with either.

Anyone modified the sills for a custom color? Overlays or a different bulb?

Either way passengers will notice =) haha white looks good too.

Yet my blue isn't as bright as shown in pictures. It's more blue than neon blue as shown in the pics.

White is nicer and newer, plus the text looks 3D, while the blue doesnt.

it's not just the color of the light it's also the design....

notice the blue only the letters are cut from the metal and illuminated

while the white there is a whole rectangle cut from the metal and has a clear plexi-glass overlay on the white illuminated letters, thus looking "3D", which catches eyes more so than the blue.
