Philips Ultinon 6000K. Has a bluish purple hue to it, looks pure white on the road. I can't really notice any loss of lumens compared to stock. They are Philips, so quality is same as the OEM bulbs and they should last the life of the vehicle. Spendy though.

I have the 6500K D2S and dont notice any loss of light unless its backroads at the dead of night. Just take Aipex's pic and picture them a TINY shade whiter/bluer
