So are the 6k better than the 8k that some other forum members have? The 6k do look good Tx.

Not that they're better, just a different look. The 8k's are real blue, the 6k's white and purple. The 6k's give out more light too. It just depends on what style your goin' for. I think the 8k's would look awesome on a winning blue 8. It'll match the color of the car perfectly.

I'd say about a week. I ordered last night. I'll get pics after the install.,

I just check my email. I got 2 separate tracking numbers(1 from rx8garage and 1 from premier) and both can't be found yet. They say it might be too early to check on the status. I'll check again tonight

It usually takes a day for the tracking process to start online. Good luck and post PICS!

I think he's getting the clear corners from rx8garage, and the bulbs from globalpremier. :confused:

Very tempting. TxRx8, how evil of you to post more pics.. especially after seeing them in your other thread.
I know HIDs are supposed to last longer than halogen, but how long can we expect these aftermarket HIDs to last compared to the stock HIDs? I am really trying to resist buying more stuff for my car. This forum is evil. How much did you guys pay?

I am eE-vilLe... :D
Paid $305 shipped. They have a 1 yr warranty and my Subaru buds swear this brand lasts about 3 yrs. We'll see!

Not sure about the warranty thing, but I think if you just replace the bulbs it wont matter. Just switch 'em back if anything happens and say you never touched 'em. ;)

I might as well do this before someone beats me to it... :D
