Does anyone have a picture of a e60 with blue foglights with or without angel eyes?

I ordered a wrong blue foglight from ebay and I'm thinking if i should get another one

I think that EuroCarFan has a blueish tint to his Xenons and fog lights. Here are his lighting mods: Upgraded factory HID to 6000K; AngeliBright Angel Eyes, PIAA GT-X 6000K Foglights. The higher the rating the more blue the color I believe. Factory HID is 4000K.

My PIAA GT-X 6000K bulbs are nowhere close to my 6000K HID low beams. The PIAAs are actually a bit more purple. I don't even turn them on cause they don't match. I'm thinking of converting my fogs to real 6000K HIDs to match the low beams.

neoenvision, what temperature bulbs did you get? I also have PIAA 4150K bulbs that I might try instead of the 6000K. I remembered they were whiter/bluer so they might match better.

I spoke with him, and he has no idea. I told him to do some research and find out the Kelvin rating of the ones he purchased. In any case, he's going to buy the 4150K I told him that matches best with the Xenons, right neoenvision? And, going forward to ask the knowledgeable peeps here on e60.net before he goes and purchases something he's not exactly sure about. We don't bite...much.

the ones i got , PIAA says it's supposed to be "purple / blueish"

but when I put them on today when i was getting my M Aero kit installed, they dont really look purble/blue, they look white/yellow , which matched my headlights perfectly

I bought a new digital camera online, so once i get my angel eyes installed, and receive the new camera, i'll take alot of pics
