Default 08 Denali HID Questions?

I have had 8000K lights for about 4 months and I think it is a cop magnet, so I switched to 6000K about 2 weeks ago. All I wanted from the beginning is for it to look like stock Escalade headlights. Does anyone know if I get 4300K, if it will look like a stock Escalade headlight and not too yellow??

It'll be perfectly white with some blue characteristics on startup.
I have 5000k and its not too blue.

Just remember that 4300K is white and provides the most lite.

Any kelvin HID will never exactly match the stock escalade lights because of the projector in the headlight itself. If you were to take out the HID system from the escalade and put it in your car it would look the same.
