Default Cree LED 5500k headlight kit-- DRL pics?

Hey guys, I'm about to purchase a set of cree LED lights that will replace my DRLs/ hibeams.
I will be purchasing this from HIDPH one of the vendors here on CL.
This kit apparently allows you to use the hibeams as opposed to the basic led lights one might pick up. Resistor is built in so no extra modules will be needed and space can be saved.

My question:
Does anyone have any pictures of what a 5500k LED DRL would look like? particularly helpful if its on an is250!

Thanks!

We've got photos of the CREE LED DRLs/high beams installed on a 2013 Scion FR-S and 2015 Subaru STI:

that looks a lots like 5000k.
I'm in same boat as you are..Mine did not come with OEM HID so I can't give up the highbeam
Was looking into those high power LED for a while, but not sure if they will fit in the housing with the dust cap tho. Also flickering is my other concern...

yeah I'm beginning to lean more towards 5000k!

Looks great. Im not a fan of those piercing lights some people get. It should be a "calm" white temperature like that pic!
