The 14k's are a huge improvement. The stock 10k's are way too yellow.

It's a much brighter white with a tint of blue. I don't like the blue look of the 20k's so these 14k's are PERFECT for my taste.

People seem to think it's because I cooked my LR.

I am not exactly sure what its called.. but it has two 3/4" aluminum edges that hides the drywall edge perfectly.

In this picture it looks like one side is longer than the other but its not. One side has a 45 degree cut.
