Exclamation 6000K HID Issue

Hey guys, wanted some opinions here. I bought (2) 600K HID's from DDM (will NEVER again BTW). Had them installed and after one day of riding the low beam (yes, I know they are both H7's) went out and that was it. To this point the high beam is still working.

So, not wanting to deal with DDM again with a return I just found a local vendor who sells them and bought a replacement bulb, it was stickered with H7, 35W, 600K. Had it installed last week and it looks quite different than the high beam.

Edit: I can't access a photo hostinng site while in the office. How to get pics up?

Any ideas if my new left low-beam is really a 600k or my right high-beam is the 600k? They certainly appear different.

6000K should look very white/bright with almost no blue, 8000K has more blue in it, 12000K is almost as blue as smurfs
