Default temps of hids

I am curious about the people who have changed over to 6000k in their HIDs if they prefer them over stock or if they preferred the stock 4300k better.


Which companies bulbs are you guys choosing, I have an 03 touring. Which bulbs does does the 03 have, I know I could search, but I figure it wouldn't hurt to ask

I got 8000k. I wouldn't say they are bad or even too blue for me but i think i may go with 7000k next time i buy a set. 6000k just seems too close to stock to me.
