I'm going to try the VLED switchbacks because of the built in resistor, but confused about 5000k or 6000k. I have the DD 5000k HID fog lights, and I ordered the 5000k DD headlight and city light bulbs as you suggested. I'd like the color to match and from the another post, it sounds like 6000k is the answer.

Also wondering if for the sedan, do I need the standard or "CK" base?

Thanks for the kind words, Brad. It really was a fun road.Thanks Gregor! I live in Northern, VA, so it was quite a hike to the Tail. I attended a wedding in GA, so I figured I'd drive down via the Blue Ridge Parkway and make a stop at Deals Gap. Was definitely worth it!

I bet Fall would be even better to go, although the scenery of the color changes might distract me from the road lol.

On a side note, the Dragon showed me that I need better pads. I'm running Hawk HPS 5.0 pads and they were not confidence inspiring. However, I was impressed (and surprised) with the grip my Conti ExtremeContact DWS 06 all seasons provided.

I'm with everyone else. This G looks awesome especially being on stock 17s. I think it's the fact we know it's running Mickey Thompsons.

Got them from Diode Dynamics and decided to go with 5000k to match the factory headlight color/temp. But now that they're on, I'm feeling like the are more white than the headlights now. Or maybe the yellow running lights/turn signals are making the headlights more yellow looking?

Does anyone have any suggestions for headlight bulbs that will be whiter than stock? And please tell me that I don't have to take the bumper off again to swap the headlight bulbs!

I also ended up going with the VLED V3 Triton switchbacks in 6K and have been very happy with my choice. I've heard that the 5K VLED switchbacks are a bit on the yellow side, so I went for the 6K instead and think they match the other 5K bulbs really closely.
