Angel Eye Color Question
Hey everyone, I got a 2004 BMW 530i and am looking to upgrade the Angel Eyes. I've been doing research on this forum and others and what I'm noticing is that alot of the pictures taken with angel eyes show a light blue or tint of blue around the circle but when I look up the brands of these same angel eyes it only advertises at WHITE/BRIGHT WHITE OR 6000K/7000K
Is it just me, the camera angle, or are these angel eyes creating a light blue tint?
I do like the light blue tint but I just want to make sure that is the result I should be expecting.
I'm looking to purchase a 7000K 5W brand.. Probably R-Dash.

Color is graded by temperature, like that 6000/7000K. These are the numbers you need. Compare shades to get the number you're looking for. Also just an fyi... brightness is measured in lumines.

I imagine you are seeing some of the custom light work by several on this forum. Check with Chris at Republic Wraps or Simon at BossCatDesigns

Most of the time it's the camera. In pictures they look blue, but in actuality, they are white. It's just the way the camera processes it.
