Any NOVA'ers Running HIDs?

[jenn1e]

Hey all I'm considering getting HIDs, and I'm wondering if any of ya'll w/ HID's have any trouble w/ the law? I'm considering 6000K or 8000K. Please shed some advice. Does anyone know around what K Temp. the Acura's and German cars are running at? I'd like to stay near those temps to not attract cops.

TIA!

Welcome to the boards.. do you drive a Mazda?

Some of the 6 guys have put hids in their cars. I'll forward one or two this way.

Any temp over 4300K results in a lower light output.

8000K is over 1000 lumens less then a 4300K bulb. I'd stick to 6000K or less.

Here's a shot of a 4500K and 5000K Xtec kit (lifetime warranty).

I wouldn't go higher then 6k. I actually think 5k looks perfect myself.

I have an Xtec 6000k kit and i love them to death. They outshine every factory hid kit i have seen. If you want a good price on a set Pm me.
