5000K vs 6000K photos

Anyone have photos to share of side by side comparison of 5000K HID light output versus 6000K? I'm looking to directly compare light output and color. Thanks.

I'm not sure I understand what you said. I know that the stock HIDs are 4300K. What I'm looking for is a photo comparison if the difference in visible color between 5000K and 6000K to make a choice between the two. I have no clue what you mean by "6000k not gonna reflect the visability at all" but I have no use whatsoever for photos of 30000K lighting as I could just drive with my eyes closed and get that much output.

25% output decrease from 4300k to 6000k? You're kidding, its much less than that... closer to 1-5%
