Angel Eye Color (Halo?) - Need Suggestion

I am planning to get a set of Headlights as spare for my fit. The ones I am looking at has Angel eyes (aka Halo??) installed... comes in blue (8000K) or white (6000K). I kinda wanna get the 8000K but then I dunno if its legal since its prewired to my driving lights.

My HIDs are 6000K. Any suggestions?

Side note: Its rainning, so I am gonan take my car for major repairs... and then leave it in the garage till RS Spring Meet

get 6K
i'm pretty sure you don't wanna get 6000K or 8000K cuz that'd be 6mil or 8mil lol?
juz imo, i wouldn't wanna risk going 8K since it'll be blue, and any exterior light that is blue will get you pulled over..

when's RS spring meet btw?

8000k stand out. i would rock 6000k. HID that is aftermarket is technically illegal so just keeping things low key and under the radar is the name of the game unless you know some cops...

LAST CALL FOR GROUP BUY~ I NEED A COUNT SO I CNA TALK TO THE PEOPLE AND SEE HOW MUCH DISCOUNT WE ARE GETTING~ HEADLIGHTS IS FOR JDM ONLY~

Check Link for details~!

Honda Jazz/Fit DEPO 02-08 Projector HeadLight VTi-S GLi - eBay Tail Lights, Lights, Indicators, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 26-Dec-08 22:20:41 AEDST)

My plan is to get a quote from the dealer after we know how much we are getting, then have the batch shipped to Canada. Once I get everything and checked for defects, I will dispatch it to whoever paid for the Lights.

When u order the lights, make sure u tell me what halo color you want. I believe white is standard, and any other funky color have surcharge.

Group Buy List:
1) Guinness - White Halo
2)

Dude, in order to buy ANYTHING from Japanese Auction sites, you need to register with a Japanese Address + Japanese Credit Card. After that, when you win the auction, the items go to the credit card's registered address (aka Home Address).

The box is HUGE + the content for the lights are heavy, I know cos I have one and looking to get a replacement....

So to sum it up, if I ask my gf to get it, everything will be shipped to her home and then somebody (her mom) is gonna have to take all the boxes to EMS - which is INSANELY expensive.

I am sure 27,800 Yen is a good price IF we all live in Japan, but you are talking about adding Halo and SHIPPING to overseas. Everything factor into the cost and to be honest with you, I had so much trouble just to get a JDM Foldable Mirrow Switch in Japan that I end up just getting it in HK - reason is my VIN number and model number dun exist in Japan.

Again, I am gauging interest so that I can talk to the dealer (in english, not japanese). I can't promise you guys anything at this point and I dunno if the group buy is gonna fall through the cracks.

Another option is that we can buy the lights on the auction and have my gf to "fly" back to japan and process the shipping for us, instead of troubling her family. But then, having my gf in Japan by herself is very risky... girls tend to buy EVERYTHING in Japan cos its all soooo. So to me, sending her back to Japan is more costly then getting it off from an english dealer.

Off the record, if we've spend so much on the the JDM conversion, we can afford the headlights ... or at least do a group buy instead of troubling immediate family members =P

or you could just get them from China. around ~1600 people's money for DEPO+ angel eyes. I'm sticking with OEMs, I don't like depo.

I'd prolly stay away from China... no offence but paying 1600 RMB and actually getting the Depos from the "seller" are two things imo =\

8K would look nicer, i think halo's should always be a level up from the color of your HIDs, but yeah, if you wanna keep it on the down low, go for the 6k

Got the halos in today~~~ WIll install it next weekend so stay tune for pics =)

I dunno what Halo color to get so I let the guys there decide.... i just send them my photos and let them decide whats good~

I agree with SR and kinda want blue 8000K, cos it will really stand out.... and 6000K will just blend in with the HIDs... ~but then I dun wanna get busted.
