Default fitted bobs hids to my blob today

4300k f*ck me the sun has competition. If anybody has any doubt over how good hids are over the standard halogens. The only problem is the rest of the dim lights that look pathetic by comparision.I check the beam pattern and it looks perfectly dipped against the garage. I'd go as far as saying that the hids give as much light as the main beam if not more.

So suggestions, my problem is what bulbs can match the hids for colour. Side lights, fog lights, main beam. Anybody had this issue?
