Hey,
I got my 6000K 55W low beams installed my Sharphid. I'll post some pics soon. But man, these things are awesome. I cannot recommend enough to anyone who does not have these. Install was a breeze, and man are they bright.
We should post some pics of the different lights.

The difficulty is that I don't believe most members would be able to accurately capture the temperature of the light.
Maybe if you do a bit of a write-up on how to take a proper night shot of headlights?

Yeah, 55W is pretty damn bright. My Fiance bought them for me for my birthday. She's an angel I know. I have wanted them for awhile. Anyhow she chose the 6000K 55W and I have to say, I wouldn't change that at all. I love them. You can see everything. Hids even in projector are damn bright to oncoming traffic, might as well see well right? I actually would like to have someone drive my car so I can see how blinding they really are.

HIDs in projectors wont blind oncomming traffic if they're aimed properly. thats the beauty about them, all the light stays below the "cut-off" line

H3's for the fogs, I like the 25K for them, gives them the true yellow fog light.

for the fogs i'd only go 35w , think 55w will get to hot and damage the light.
I'd go here sharphid , Jon's a vendor on here and a great gut to deal with, think he has a sale going on right now for 80 shipped a set.
