pink headlight?

Just noticed that the passenger side headlight has a pink hue, while the drivers side is still white. Any ideas what the problem might be?

It's probably time to change the xenon bulb - only if it bothers you. I believe either phillips or osram sell a bulb that that should match your original headlight at this point in its life cycle.

Post a pic if you can

Yes it's time to change your bulb. Xenon lights will turn pink prior to burning out.

maybe your car is slowly turning into an albino e90? First the eyes turn pink and then the skin (exterior color) turns white.
