leave your bulbs the way they are..you will lose output by going to 6000Ks. The 4300K (85122+) is a great long lasting bulb..

I hate the 4300 personally. I want some color and I like the 8000Ks, it may be rice, but the rest of the car wont be, so I think I'll be good.

if you buy a cheap bulb the color will fade. ask anyone on the forum and they will tell you that the color will fade after a while but if you buy a good brand the bulb will hold its color and last longer. you get what you pay for. good luck

I read somewhere that the higher you go the less actual visability you have. I put the 6K H1 in the fog lights and they really light up the road. Don't go higher just to get color.

Way less lumens.... you want the best bulb you can buy go for the Osram 66240 CBI, it's 5k and has 3400 lumens pure white light. If you want some color flicker then change your projector lenses to clear. Running the 6 or 8k bulbs from China is a waste of money and you'll be lucky to have 1500 lumens after 200 hrs.
Not only rice but you can't see well, do you like to drive fast at night? You'll be outrunning those bulbs at 50mph....lol

I'm a happy diode dynamics customer, so I would recommend them! I got the stage 3 kit for my Sedan

Also, I went with 5% tint and I'm happy with it

DEF get the OEM Coupe spoiler (get an Authentic one), it's real clean and goes well with the look of the coupe

the stock headlights are fine

I have 8000k on my car now, it seems whiter, but the light output is less than OE color. I think 6000k is best of both world.

I went 8000Ks, should be here today... If I'm not happy, I'll go to the 6000Ks.

5% Tint is awesome man, I thought about 10% and I'm so happy I went with the 5% and 50% on the windshield.

Definitely going with the OEM Infiniti spoiler, just in time.
