it would be approaching blue.
Beware of halogen bulbs that claim to have a kelvin scale. Because they still burn a filament in an environment of halogen gas (even if there is some xenon gas in there), they are never going to be able to get rid of that yellow look, regardless of how much blue glass they use. It's usually just a scam to charge you $80 for a set of $5 bulbs. Can't tell you how many of these sights are out there. Heck, Jimmy540i has bought himself a Ferrari, a supercharged 540i, and various other sports cars off the money he makes duping BMW owners.

Haha I remember that guy jimmy540i with his "xenon bulbs."
Maybe it'd be better to save up some money in long run and get LCI headlights w/ angel eyes? Perhaps from Longtran the man?
