Fog Lights
I just bought these PIAA XTREME WHITE PLUS 4000K for my 2006 fogs. i was wondering if anyone already has these on there cars or has seen them in person? I hope it will be different from the OEM fog bulb.
Also after i bought these today i did some more searching and found these other two types of PIAA H1 fog bulbs.
one is xtreme force 4700k and the other one is a spark 8000k but the 8000k is like $120 bucks. Also do anyof yall have expierence with these other two piaa bulbs. here are the pics. obviously the kelvin is higher so they must be much brighter????

ok so then what color did they lean towards the most? i dont expect them to be all white. I know that there going to have some traces of blue tint to it but i just want to know to wht extent?
I have the x-treme force 4700k on my 06 and it matches up to the HIDS very well, I'd say about 95% perfect match. I tried the Xtreme white before and they don't match up very well maybe 75% to HIDS, still too yellow.
Yeah if you are trying to match the HIDs dont go below 5000K, I have some 5800K and they are just a tad bit whiter than the HIDs, I think 5500K would be perfect, but then different manufacturers have different definitions so depends on the brand too.

ok i installed one of the piaa 4000k h1 bulbs in my fog last night!!!!!!
And the damn thing looked so much closer to stock i almost punched myself in the face for buying those stupid bulbs. I took it off and im going to return them. but its not over i want to see about getting these piaa spark 8000k h1 fogs. I figure why not just go all the way. install was easy just remove the wheel and pop out rivets on lining and peel lining back. whats opinions on these 8000k fogs. now that should stand out??????

Ok, I replaced my projectors with PIAA 6600K and I put the PIAA Spark 8000K in my Fogs... I tried like 4-5 different pairs of fogs before I said screw it and shelled out the cash for the PIAA's. I like the way they look together alot... I also have the PIAA lights in my turn signals which look white until you turn them on.
Here are a couple of pics...

those hids are nice are those the cobalt 6600k? well those 8000k spark piaa h1 doesnt look so bright for it being a 8000k h1? got any better pics of the fog????? or is i cause the fog housing has a light restrictor so that all the fog lighting shoots out of the top of the fog housing? i bet when you get eye level to those 8000k sparks they are bright????am i right i just want to make sure before i buy these spark 8000k

Yeah, they are pretty bright... I wanted to get the color output more than the brightness in the pic so people could see the match... I can try to take a cpl more pics tonight but the straight on pics never come out real good with all the glare.
