Hid is more purple then blue. It also changes color, depending on the angle that its viewed at.

Aftermarket hid is illegal. All kits have been pulled from the shelves. OE manufacturers are being told to discontinue hid by 2010 (apparently). Im not sure on the rules on retro-fitting current oe spec hids onto our cars... Lots of people do that. There is a huge thread on honda-tech all about it and hid in general.

Do not get something with super high wattage. Though it will be VERY bright, it will burn up your wiring (Ive seen it happen). Stick with oe specs.

You can get Sylvania Silverstars, which are great bulbs, for a decent price. Its a nice white light. Blue absolutely sucks when its wet outside. You NEED something with a color tint to it (Yellow is best)
