Indeed, I ordered mine in mid spring when everyone is pumped up to ride again and do some tweaks to there bikes to get em looking sexy for summer.

Yes Porschemaniac, I have a DDM Tuning kit in my bike and I think kerosene has one also. Mine has been running flawlessly since June this year.

55 may melt the plastic, I've gone 35 in all my bikes that have HID.

I have 8000, it's bluish tint and 6500 which is white

I got a 35W bulb and 6000 for color. I called up the state troopers office to see how blue I could go and still be legal. They said if looks like any shade of blue they'll pull me over for it since its not stock. But I went w/ 6000 I figured if they try to give me a hard time I would just play it off as being a 5000 bulb and go from there. I also talked to the local police department and they said to get what ever color I want and they wouldn't hassle me.

I have the ddmtuning 55w 6k kit. I have not had any heat problems, and have not heard of anyone melting an f3 headlight assembly because of HIDs. The stock headlight is 55w after all (but much less bright). And I agree with everyone here, this is the best mod I have done to my bike.

Ah cool, I've seen cars that had the housing melt with 55w, figured better safe than sorry.
