5300k vs 6000k
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/104398/hid03.jpg"></center><p>
5300k on the left, 6000k on my car on the right.
I do like the 6000k better since they don't have any yellow in them, and they have just a little touch of blue. Just perfect ! I think 5300k is the stock color on A4s.
After seeing the two cars aside, my bf decided to put 6000k also
You can also check that post on this other forum, my friend did some test too with his HID on his B7:<ul><li><a href="http://forums.montrealracing.com/showthread.php?t=420944&highlight=hid">http://forums.montrealracing.com/showthread.php?t=420944&highlight=hid</a</li></ul>

You wouldn't be blinded by my car if you weren't in my way.

Not all AM HID kits are the same.
I've seen some HID retrofits that are completely inappropriate. Like in an '84 GTI. It was horrible stuff. And some OEM stuff is pretty awful too - new Land Rovers and most BMWs, for example.
That foglamp section doesn't mention much about buying his products. And when it comes to automotive lighting, I'm not sure that there's anyone with more expertise. But I'm willing to admit I'm wrong if you've got someone else in mind.
