no idea. I don't have pure whites in mine. I'm running 8000K hid so going cool white on mine as soon as the shipment comes in.

I just installed my warm whites but are a little to white for my taste. I'm running 6000k HID's and they don't match as much.

Would anyone like to possibly trade for pure whites?

If not then Michael i'll most likely pick up 3 sets of your left over pure whites.

Pure whites are 6000k correct?

yeah, pure whites are supposed to be 6000K. Cool white are supposed to be 8000K.

yup. If you want, you can wait till I get my cool whites in and I can try them out to see if they'd be a better fit for your 6000K or my 8000K so you don't waste money.

I'm pretty sure the 6000k would match up since the warm whites are just a bit off in color. My idea was since the eyelid housing was already a bit blue, adding white should just make it pair up to the 6000k HIDs. But these are really white on my eyelids and didn't change color. Mine didn't turn purple as well..guess i got lucky?

Anyways i'll shoot you payment now.

Thanks again!

::Edit::

Payment sent! THANKS!

My Cool whites. I noticed it takes awhile for it to actually heat up and turn even darker blue. Loving it so far, just installed the rear plate lights this morning though so no pictures yet. The last picture is when I just installed it, the other ones are when it start to turn a darker blue. I think it gets even darker, but the only picture of that I have isn't very good because it was artistic picture.

I original order was placed in Jan and had to wait in line for a bit.. confirmed the details by late Feb and production started.

Called dealership end of April .. saying I wanted white instead and found out my silver one was in their showroom already! (i wasn't planning to take delivery until June, when the lease on my bimmer ends)

So.. the sales looked around and found me one going into production that MB Toronto ordered for demo purpose. Basically I took it from them and they made the sale! They even made some more $ becoz i am stuck with the performance package that I did not originally ordered.

What color did you order/want?

i placed my order for a steel grey C300 back in Jan. it's only now being delivered on mid-June.

if i could, i'd like a black. but with all the options packages i selected, it's impossible that they would have another one thas the same but with different colors.

plus, the dealer was pretty insistent that i take delivery of this car because they'd never be able to sell it otherwise.

( it's a C300 manual transmission with almost all options )
