You can get HIDs in various colour temps... with 8000k onwards going more blue..

You can also buy just blue tinted bulbs from halfords..

8k or 10k you need to get a blue tint in your lights,

try... hidsdirect.co.uk should have bulbs there

I find my standard xenon's look quite bluey.

 

[Arr0nUK]

any one know whats the colour type of the standard ones?

 

[AK]

4300k for xenons iirc..

I've just ordered a set of 6000k as the 8000k ones light output wasnt the best

 

[Arr0nUK]

i take it they get bluer as you go higher up in 'k'

But I have to say... Chaaaaaaaaaavvvvvvv!

Also, the higher the K, the less light is emmited. I have 6000k's and even they're quite purpleish/blue. I wouldn't go higher than that mate, just starts to look chavvy and the light output isn't even that great on standard bulbs. Mine we're £35 for a pair of D2S's on eBay.
