The prisimatic effect of HIDs causes the light to look blue from the side. Head on, it looks white. People mistaken the blue edges for blue HIDs, and buy blue lights... if you're doing a retrofit 4300k is fine. If you're sticking HIDs in OEM housing (which shouldn't be done because it blinds drivers), using a 4300k will just look white, from any angle, since there won't be that prisimatic deflection you get from HID projectors.
