Thanks Ed, I just have do something with the floor when time allows.
Hopefully, my bro will come up and take some pictures of me working on his 99 FRC this winter. Lots of work to do.
Mine is up at ACP getting getting converted from a coupe to a FRC and the body kit installed and painted.

Aside from the mod write up --- 
--- I gotta say, it's so great to see you on Ed
It's nice to see some of the "legends" make an appearance... thanks!

These HID's are absolutely awesome. I bought a set from Nate@CorvetteGarage this past summer. I flamed Nate a little because of delivery taking so long, but, they were worth every bit of the waiting period. Sorry bout that Nate.

Yikes! People this organized and skilled scare me!
Maybe I need to drive to IN with appropriate liquid payment in hand and let you do mine.
Definitely needs to be a sticky.

6000K is pure white, and only 300 lumens less than the 4300K. 4300K is the brightest, but has a slight yellow tint, same as stock halogens(but still almost 3 times brighter). Anything above 6000K looks blue, and the higher you go in the Kelvin scale, the more it will start to give off a purple light.

From my research on HIDs:
6000K is pure white, and only 300 lumens less than the 4300K. 4300K is the brightest, but has a slight yellow tint, same as stock halogens(but still almost 3 times brighter). Anything above 6000K looks blue, and the higher you go in the Kelvin scale, the more it will start to give off a purple light.

4300K is the best for prolonged night driving. 5000-6000K tend to cause glare on white, gray surfaces (even with projectors). Concrete roads are a pain but asphalt is awesome. I don't even use my headlights unless on a poorly lit road. My 6000K HID fogs throw out enough light.
