New Lighting plus HIDs (tinting tails tomorrow)

[Sam1ch]

I first had 6,000K HIDs installed. Tonight I just finished swapping out the 6,000k bulbs for 8,000k. They look exactly the same... IDK if it's me but I do not see a difference. Anyways I also switched my high beams to 4,000(something)K halogen bulbs. Does anyone else think it is a MAJOR pain in the butt, just to switch out the head lights??

Also I switched all my interior lights and license plate lights with white lights. Oh and the reverse lights with brighter white because I plan to apply tail light overlays tomorrow. I changed my tail/brake lights with red leds thinking it would be brighter than the stock bulbs but I was wrong... The led tails look better but are not brighter, which makes me sad.

which led tails did you buy that were not brighter? im lookin to buy new ones and would like to know wut to avoid

[Sam1ch]

I just bought led bulbs to replace the factory ones. I bought everything from ddmtuning.

Did you buy white LEDs or red LEDs for the tails? If you bought red, thats why they arent brighter. The stock filament bulbs actually emit white light which is then filtered red through the tail lens. Using a red bulb with a red filter (lens) will cut the light output.

Yeah I bought red ones but I did my research and the website I bought them off of told me to get the same color as the housing it will be in for the best results. I figured white would be best because its brighter but someone said that since a white led is just all of the colors mixed or a very very light blue it wouldn't pass through the red tails very well.

Blue wont pass through red very well, but white will. Look at your stock filament bulbs, they are clear and emit white light. If red were to be brighter than they would have been coated red.

Ahh oh well I'll just return them and buy white ones instead. Did you switch your tail light bulbs with leds? BTW would you please post some pictures of your wheels? I am looking to buy some wheels and eibach springs once I sell my Harley. Are those Tenzo Cuzcos and how far of a drop do you have?

Those are too expensive just for some tail lights IMO.

Your car doesn't look filthy. It looks like you have metallic flake in your paint. haha
