No thats from a rock that hit my car on the highway believe it or not. I got it fixed though. My hood is lined up fine, I think it's just the angle of the shot.

best brand is Philips 85122+ ...wait..our cars came stock with it.. 
I currently have Philips 85122CM (5000K) and I dont like them at all. I had them on my g35 coupe and they were amazing but somehow in the new G37 projector, it is not as effective as I thought it would have been. I knew I was going to lose output, but surprisingly I lost a lot and I dont like it..I commute mostly at night too..I should be reverting back to regular 85122 (4300K) shortly..For my HID bulbs, I ALWAYS go Philips..
this is the stock 85122+ Philips 4300K (my G35 headlamps)
then the 85122CM Philips 5000K
however in the new G37, it looks nothing as bright as in that picture..really disappointed..

You live in Florida and saying its Freezing cold? Omg. I guess you must love your heated seats too. lol Philips is good ****, they last forever too, you get what you pay for, but I still rather buy the $60 BS hid kits on ebay, they are cheap enough to just buy two sets and have alot of spare parts laying around.

When you turn them on they are blue-ish, but fade to a more whitish color on the road. Looks sick to me. Oh and when you see it in the rearview from another car the lights have a blueish tint to them, but on the road its mostly white.
I love the cutoff line on these cars...

Well yeah, if you want a truly purple color i wouldn't go with these. They are the best compromise between a strong purple/blue color and the stocks though.
