I have the 8000k as well and it looks bad a$$. Yes them are not as bright as OEM but not by that much. It looks too good to pass.

Don't waste your money on Phillips. The <$100 HID bulbs last forever. I spent just under a year driving with them on 24/7 (daytime as well as nighttime), and i drive a lot. I must have put about 30,000km on them. The average person drives less than 7000km/yr at night, so you do the math. They were doing just fine until i got water on one of the bulbs. I'm now buying a second set of 8000's.

I hear they last anywhere from 6 months to a year. saw somebody going 2 years, but with not much night driving, I guess.
