HID Conversion Kits

I was hoping to buy a new hid conversion kit but I am not sure what colour looks good on my car. Any advice?

The stock 996tt lights are 4300K and I have heard that 6000K is the highest temp one should go, otherwise the effective useful light is reduced. Also the cops will stay away at that value.

4300K is factory setting, Gives you a nice bright white. I have always went with 6000K. Still give you a bright light along with a very slight blue. Looks very nice!
