It was supposed to be the 10,000 blue but after installing it it has more stock yellow hue to it. So its not the bright blue color

So, you bought the wrong bulbs, they labeled the bulbs wrong or what? Kinda hard to mess up 10k bulbs.

A little bit of information on HIDs. 6000K is the highest you can go legally, and 8000K and above you actually lose brightness. 4300K is just like daylight. 8000K and above is done just for looks or ricers, seriously at this temperature and above you really lose visibility. The BEST temperature is 4300K as it is just like daylight.
