I can't suggest a no name brand hid kit. It's known that Hella and Phillips are the top 2 in the game.

There are some cheap ones on Ebay for like 50 bucks but go with a branded one. as far as Law Enforcement problem, some people have troubles some dont.
Retro or Projectors would be the best way, somebody said on the another thread that the stock headlights are not designed for HID and they will scatter the beam and give too much glare.

check out https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...d.php?t=195619 as well.

6000K is white

8000K is blue

10000K is blue-purple

12000K is purple

that's wrong...

4300k - white
6000k- purple

Wouldn't rely too much on it
