HID angel eye color problems...

I've ordered Camaross305s HID angel eyes before summer, I just got a chance to put them on though, and .....As you can see from the pictures below, the left one is a different color than the right one Before I PM the guy I was just thinking I can get a answer from someone else who knows their stuff about 'em.







My question: Is it possible that I've done something wrong during the installation for the lights to be different color. OR did I just receive different colored kits? Thanks for any help.

1. You might have two different K temperature bulbs. 6k/8k?

2. Overall quality of the bulbs may be bad. The amount of salt and high gas pressure may be uneven from one another, which leads to a difference in variation of color.


I'd personally the vendor directly to see if they could take care of your situation before posting anything up.

Yea. They were both supposed to be 20k. Just wanted some opinions first before contacting the vendor.
