Yellow Fogs

OK, so based off some advice from HIDplanet.com, I purchased some Narva Gold (AKA Philips Yellowstar) H4 bulbs. I can't decide if I will be happy with them. I know this thread is worthless without my pics, but I am wondering if anyone has any good shots of the PIAA Plasma Yellow's so I can compare. I know it is tough to get that deep Lexus yellow without some caps, but I need to compare mine to someone with the PIAA's. I know ttrank has them...any pics?? Thanks guys.

If you want the deep lexus yellow..

Go with the Nokya Yellows.. You'll be happy with the deepness.. I've had them on on my 05 headlights for a while before I switched to my 06's.. have them on my 06's and they're still going strong. For the price.. you can't beat the deal. You'll be happy... and surprised as well.

Any pics of the Nokya's? That's what I really need to make a decision. The ones I have are yellow, don't get me wrong. But they aren't as intense as I want them. I know caps will get me the deep yellow, but they will also reduce lumens, which I'm not too keen on either. C'mon guys, whip out those digital camera's and take some pics

Luminics JDM yellow were awesome on my '03 lights. Way more yellow than the PIAA crystal ion H3 I had on my Maxima. Went with the same ones but H1 in my new '06 headlights

Here are pictures I took of the Nokya Hyper Yellows on my wife's TL. (I never took pictures of the Hyper-Yellows in my G becuase I installed them a few days later, but I suppose I can if you don't like these pics )

I played around with the aperature and shutter speed, to try and show how yellow they were, yet show how bright they were.

OK, thanks for the pics. Yeah, that color is very similar to the color I am getting from mine right now. I just didn't know if there was something that may have a deeper yellow. Can anyone with the PIAA's comment if theirs look more yellow than that pic? Thanks avs007, that was helpful.

IMO, capsules>>coated bulbs, which is why I am using the capsules. Since you have h4 fogs, you don't even have to take apart your headlights to install the capsules, just buy a set and slip them on!

Yeah, I'm doing a projector retro, so the headlights are already apart. I'll keep it in mind if I can't find anything better.
