So I bought the led drl 9005 bulbs from ijdmtoy and didn't realize I purchased the blue ones instead of white. IMO they look kinda ricey but its cool. They aren't that bright but I'm just scared that the color of them would get law enforcement to pull me over. I can take better pics with the whole car in the morning.

I would'nt use them.....send em' back and get the white ones you originally intended on getting.
It would get old worrying about blue ones
 
The amount of attention would really be depending on the police in your areas interest in such things. But yes. You will get stopped with them. The police love an easy reason to stop you so don't give them one. I think the blue LEDs look great though.

I have some blue ccfls and blue led strips. I have them on a separate switch and have definitely gotten stopped. A quick flick has saved me a few times. Twice with a warning so far after I explained I had either inadvertantly hit the switch and that i never leave them on cause I know and also that they are just for "hard parking" at get togethers and I must have just forgotten they were on.

Yea I'd be careful with any red/blue lights that can be seen on the exterior of the car. A buddy of mine had blue DRL's and some dick cop actually charged him with impersonating an officer.
 
In most jurisdictions use of blue light forward is limited to police vehicles only. This is an offense under the Highway Traffic act in Ontario.
 
Risked it and drove with them on for around 10 days (I know, scary). Drove past many cops and none seemed to even bother looking at them. Guess they aren't that bright without the LED amplifier as I could still flash them like high beams kinda.
