Very well put. 6000K + kits do not put out as much light as the 4300K.

The reason you see some OEM HID have different colors is because of the housing that reflects different colors. You'll notice that it's not the same color all the time like those 8000K barney purple kits.

The bulbs that I have shed a sort of bluish violet light, but a lot more white then purple.

As far as you having seen the Hella kits for like $600, some people pawn off kits that have Hella balasts, as the Hella kit, but the only place you can buy the full Hella kit, is from Hella, or an authorized retailer, in which case, they are special order only. Hellas suggested msrp is is like $1219.98 or something, and wholesale on the kit is like $745, depending on your buying status from Hella.

The real Hella kit comes in a blue and yellow box that says "HELLA" on it, anything else is not the real Hella kit and may just use Hella balasts, such as the philips kit.......

Just to throw out some additional info:

The most common "kit" out there right now is the so called Philip's kit which contains a philip's ballast and Osram bulb. It is still a good kit but it's not exactly what is advertised.

True Philip's kit is Philip's bulbs and ballasts.
