The xenons are 4250K or 4300K I think I forget the exact number but its about there... PIAA makes a few different Color temp bulbs... I myself and a few other people got the 4700K which is a little whiter than the Xenons itself but I think its fine and looks really good.

Thanx again EBMC, I hope I can find them Piaa's 4700 at the local autosport shop.
No Problem... local shop... might be a little harder... maybe the japanese rice rocket shops... but i didnt really check. I just bought them off ebay it came straight from Japan in about 7 days or so... not too bad.
Good luck!

Your right they are hard to find, I tried looking online but no help. Since you live around where I am do you know a local store? What is the exact bulb? HB? 9006? so many bulbs.
Ya they are HB4 9006.
For the PIAA ones that most of us got its
"PIAA Extreme Force
4700K HB Bulbs
Model H-259"
I dont think they sell it here... I even looked at the Focus Fashion Plaza store where they have all the rice rocket stuff...
Just get it online... Ebay.

Wassup EBMC does the x-pel clear bra work? I already have rock chips on my front bumper & headlights... damn 605 freeway all them cement & gravel big rigs. Does it really protect from rock chips?
VERY much so. It saved multiple cars for me already. 710 freeway... you know what that spells... Trucks all over the place going to and from the port.
I had a huge rock come flying at me and w.out the bra I'm almost positive it would have cracked my head light but instead now it left a mark isntead.
On my MINI it was rained with rocks... cracked my windshield and pitted it but left 0 marks on the paint. Smashed up rock debries were left on the bra but that was it... no damage! Highly recommeded...
