how many K does the 2012 370z head light, light bulb have? if its cheap, i may want to make it brighter or possibly blue, like my old black 2003 350z.

wish i had more money, id buy a 2003-2005 black 350z and make everything inside and out brand new.. miss my old car, got mad attention and shout outs on the streets..

The stock hid bulb is philips branded, 35w, 4300k.

I replaced mine with 6000k and I'm very happy with the result.

I went 6k too... unfortunately our lenses have some yellowing in them. Even with the 6k I can see yellow light projection on other cars/walls.

4300k in my Mazda3 looks a lot more white/bluish from the factory.

Get some 6 K's from this guy -

100% worth the swap, nicer color, minimal loss in usable light and the bulbs are good quality. I got mine from JW. Good guy there

did you guys install the bulbs yourself? if so, will i have to remove the damn front bumper and every other thing?

what do you mean our lenses have yellowing? 6000K should be bright white with a tint of blue, but your saying theres yellow?
