Fading Xenon headlamps...help

I have a 98 Cl500 Coupe, my baby, and the right front headlamp has a different color to the Xenon as the other headlamp... if I change both Xenon (burner)and high beam bulbs should they be the same color? or does it have something to do with the igniter/ control module?
