HID headlight turns pink

Hi Scotty - Have a 2011 Acura TSX 2.4 auto, 80k miles.  The right side HID headlight has turned pink in colour.  It first lights up normal, then fades to a pink colour a few seconds later.  Now, the light shuts off completely a minute or so after it turns pink.  Is this a bulb problem or a ballast issue?  I can probably DIY fix the bulb, but think the ballast requires a pro due to the bumper removal.

An Amazon seller says OSRAM is factory bulb.  I want to match OEM, but so many choices and brands that seem to range in kelvin ratings from "blue" "yellow" or "pink"-ish hue to the light. Just prefer the factory light which is a clear white, and hope to match the OEM left side that is still working.

You and your community are the best!  Thanks so much.

If you want to match the OEM, then get the OEM bulb.
