My Ride: 545 modded the F out
![Default](https://5series.net/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
To date, I have not come across any European cars that have been modded with the high temp HID's. Only purple HID's I've seen were on trucks or Chrysler's. My opinion would be bias tho as my first instinct would say that you are ruining your ride. Im sure if somehow you can mask it to be "tastefully done" ( not sure how? maybe purple accents on the car?? ) it will look ok. Just my two cents. Not bashing, but definitely not supporting the purple HID's

im using the PIAA 6600k, which are perfect; brighter than the OEM 4000k and improves visibilty a lot. you can get them as a pait on amazon for $250 +/-. the purple looks too fake and way out of range from what normal on newer cars.

There were so many threads on this lighting issue in various forums awhile back and it seems like the factory 4300K supposedly the brightest even though our eyes think it's a bit yellowish comparing to the 6000k.
I still prefer 6000k though...
