Default New headlight installed - Different color scheme

Just had my headlights replaced under warranty due to foggy issue, the new one is so clear and nice.

I notice the new headlights have a different bulb color than the old one I had:

______________Old_____________New________
Low Beam : Super White ----- Regular Yellowish
High Beam :Regular Yellowish - Regular Yellowish
Turn Signal : Orange --------- Orange
Parking light : Orange -------- Regular Yellowish

I guess I prefer the super white almost greenish color low beam on my old headlights, it looks better, I wonder why they change it to regular yellowish color on the new one.

These issues can be easily resolved by changing out bulbs to matching ones. The dealership probably just installed new, cheaper bulbs when they did the replacement. Go to an auto parts store and get some new hyperwhite bulbs or Sylvania Silver Stars. I don't have this problem, I installed HIDs.
