Anyway, I have a question.
My friend drives a BMW 525 and it has blue headlights. He told me they were Xenon blue headlights. That's cool and all, but I actually have a blue car and think blue headlights on a blue car would be sweet (even though obviously you can't see the color of the car at night...it's just on principle)... So I went out and bought a set of Xenon blue bulbs for my camaro, and put them in. They're white. I then got ANOTHER set. They're white too.
So I did a little research and found that, holy shit, I need Ion blue bulbs...whatever those are, instead of Xenons.
Can someone please confirm that after this last $40, I will finally have blue headlights for my car?

Your friend has EXPENSIVE, NICE headlights that shine much brighter than standard halogen lights. They aren't designed to LOOK cool (although they do), they are designed to shine brighter so you can see better at night. They are probably H.I.D. lights - High Intensity Discharge. These are expensive to put on (aftermarket). Anyways, putting fake blue tinted bulbs on your car would be lame IN MY OPINION but do what you will with your car. I've heard bad things about cheap bulb replacements...not very safe.
