Pics of Mtec Cosmos Blue VS. Mtec Super White Bulbs
I've got Mtec Cosmos Blue fogs on me car, but today I got my new Mtec Super White bulbs. Just wanted to see the difference. So now I've got one of each on the car.
Its very hard to capture the difference in pics, but here's my try. I can say that looking at the car from far away, they look very similar. But up close you see more of the difference. On the left, Cosmos Blue.............................................. .................................................. .....................On the right, Super white.

As always your car looks great
I was wondering which one to get... ended up going with the Cosmos Blue. But yea, can't see too much of a difference, the Cosmos seem to have a tinny bit more blue in it with a little whiter light tho. Hows the overall output on the super white, pretty close to the cosmos??

Since the glass in the super white is less blue, the output is a little higher. You can see that in the first pics also, you can see the cosmos bulb, but not the slightly brighter super white bulb.

Actually neither, I tried both and the Cosmos Blue is too blue and the Super White is too yellow......
I'd say try PIAA Plasma GTX or Xtreme Force (JDM bulbs).

I can't really say, cause I haven't seen 8000K Xenon, but I would think that 8000K would be to blue/purple to match any Halogen bulb.

The angel eyes on the e90 are totally different from the e92, so they won't fit yours.
