I think you have four options:
1. Mod your 07 lights, i e, putting the halos into your oem lights.
2. Retro your aftermarket lights: changing out the projector.
3. Buy a different HID kit, higher temp, like 8k and above.
4. Buy another set of aftermarket lights without the purple lens.
Good luck to you.

1. Yes, retrofitting them yourself is hard and time consuming. Yes, if you hire a custom shop like Lightwerkz, they are expensive.
2. SEARCH!!! or go to the top of the page, look under FEATURES, then TECH, and scroll.
3. Temp in HIDs affect the color, higher the temp, bluer the color, but you sacrifice visibility. 4300k is the brightest, but has a tinge of yellow. 6000k is pure white, and 8000k is bluer still. 12000k is going purple and not very bright. So with a different temp color, you may affect different color in your output.

I thought that it could change the pink lense color to hopefully blue or something
Do you think that might work?
