4300k is closest to propper daylight. That's what I have and imo it's spot on. Any higher and it goes too blue. The actual projecter lense is what bends the light and gives you different colours at certain angles.
4300k is the standard for most oem cars.

Cool white was always my fluorescent tube of choice. That chart looks misleading, because it suggests that's still rather orange, when it isn't, it's properly white (if not slightly blue).
Absolutely hated warm white.
But back to the point...
Get with the theme nits;

30k all the way.

I'll get some pics up. Mine is very white. Remember your bending the light through the projectors so it changes the light spectrum at certain angles.
The higher you go the less light you have.
