gp thunders

89andy · 10-29-2007, 11:55 PM

hey i've been wondering for a looong time about my gp thunders 8500k...in the daytime they look white and nice but because there isnt much contrast with light, its not very bright...still nicer than yellow though..

but at night once the HID's are turned on, my angel eyes are much more yellower instead of a true white color

. However, if I turn off HID and only turn on the DRL (angel eyes), they look really damn nice and white/blueish tint!

Am i jus gonna have to live with the ugly night time colours of my angel eyes? And it's not like I can turn off hid during the night, that's just too dangerous haha.

Did you change your HID bulbs..... Mine seem to be a very close match..... They definately don't look yellow and I get compliments all the time.

I think the GP's match the zenon's pretty well. My beef is low light output on both the angels and fogs.

Yeah. Mine gives off a bit of yellow when i turn on my HIDs. The GPs are also not as bright as the OEM yellows if just by themselves at night.

i dont mean they are YELLOW yellow but just more yellow then during the day XD ... still much nicer than OEM of course but I just wish there is something similar to LUX for the coupe
