Hi :)

Hey, I'm new here to this site. Got my car in April and done some small things. Blue tinting, just got it , Tanabe Touring Medallion Exhaust, and Honda factory rims. Upcoming plans, HID 10k light bulbs, new springs, new tower bar, and thinking of JR supercharger(need suggestions).

the higher the k, the less lumens of light.

hence why oem only uses 4300k and use projector angel to creat the color. aftermarket cant do this.

stock halogen gives out roughly 1200-1500 lumens of light.

4300k gives out 3200 lumens.

6000k goes down to about 2700 lumens.

once you get to 10k, its utterly useless.

4300k is yellow, 5000k is white, 6000k is purple/blue.

Ok I took some pix on a rainy day...Sorry I only got my PHONE to take pix. Doesn't do my car justice sometimes.




My friend did my tint job. $120 lifetime warranty. The middle wasn't tinted because he didn't think the tint was going to stick. Is there a way to take out those black dots on the windshield???? I'd like to get a full blue tint visor.
