Anybody got pics of 6000k or 5000k in headlamps or fogs?
Hi all, I am planning on purchasing a HID kit for my fogs and get the headlamp bulbs changed to match in color. I've eliminated 8000k as i had them on my S600 and feel that they are too blue. I've narrowed it down to 6000k or 5000k, but would like to see some pics if anyone is running either setup before i place my order.

I have 5000K low beams, I tried 6000K and they were WAY too blue for me.
This is a pic of my 5000K lowbeams, 4300K fogs, and white superbright wide-angle LED city lights, and a few pics of the car in the dark w/ flash off.

My main goal is to get the lights to match my led city lights, it looks funny right now with the 4300k bulbs since they are yellow(ish). From the pics posted above the 5000k looks like a perfect match. In person do they have a hint of yellow or are they pure white?
Heres a pics of the leds (they look very blue in the pics but are actually white in person)
