any HID kit will turn heads, and the 6000k will have more usable light output, kinda blueish.. the 8000k will be more of a purple/blue color, not as much usable light

6k is the absolute highest I would ever consider going, though I never would.

i see your asking about the VHO so im assuming your talking about my kit as i am the only vendor offering VHO (very high output) the 6000K is a white with small huge of blue but more less white.. the 8000K is IMO the best to go with as it is bright and the VHO kits produce a different type of blue hue (ask hybridkid he was the 1st to have a VHO kit on the forums and he even stated its well worth it) if you would like to order a kit PM me and ill help get everything done in a timely fashion for you ask my buyers i have the kits in 2-3 days (shipping is fast).

Thumbs up

I can say that from all the research I did on HIDs I thought that going with the VHO 8k kit from DarkSyde would be OK, at the very least a little brighter than stock. The VHO kits are 55 watts versus 35 Watts for a standard HID so you are getting a lot brighter bulb. DarkSyde can verify that I was a pain in the butt before I ordered.

But now after receiving the kit and installing it, you can see that the light emitted from it is Very White when compared to the stock G35 HIDs. Plus I have a 3m film on my headlights that has a slight Blue tint to them. In the pictures the only one that even comes close to showing how big a difference there is, is the one taken against the garage door. In reality the other pic makes the G's look a lot brighter than they are, they look mroe like a stock 9007 vs a HID in person.

The kit is first rate and exceeded my expectations so far.

More pics and some of the install I put over on HybridSRT.Com.

Now that I see the light output on the garage, it doesnt appear to throw light in every direction. It looks pretty good.
