9006/HB4 Fog Light Bulb Replacement ?????

I'm looking to replace my JDM HB4 fog light bulbs that I currently have. My ride is the '07 G35S Sedan. With sooooo many freaking brands out there, not quite sure what to get. Can someone help me decide between the following:

1. NOKYA Hyper Yellow Pro Halogen Light Bulb (9006/HB4): http://www.racinglab.com/nohyyeprohal4.html;

2. PIAA Plasma Ion Yellow (HB 9005/9006) Halogen Light Bulbs (13506): http://www.racinglab.com/piplionyehb9.html; or

3. Polarg Pure Yellow 9006: http://www.automotivelightingusa.com...roducts_id=465

I've also seen some by Luminics, but not quite familiar with them. Thoughts???

I can vouch for the NOKYA, I'm using them now and I get a lot of compliments on how good it looks.

The Luminics JDM Yellow is the best choice according to another thread. (search?) It was pretty bright and most saturation of yellow which looked most JDM, i assume.

The PIAA and Polarg I havent seen but PIAA is what I would choose overall if they werent so pricey.

Is it that they are just more "yellow" than anything. The stock fogs on the '07 seem a little week, and bland. Don't mind spending more $$$ for something nicer, you know.

How bright are they Yizhao (others please feel free to chime in on what you have installed)? I'm looking for something that's great in snow and rain (for a 2007 g35x sedan - 9006 fog lights), but that won't be a cop magnet.

Thanks

I bought the PIAA's listed above. My passenger side is completely white, but the driver's side is yellow. So annoying. I suppose it's a defective bulb, but for spending $70, WTF! Now I'm looking for a replacement, otherthan than PIAA's.

The Luminics JDM Yellow (9006) Headlight Bulbs seem to not be DOT approved. Interesting most folks have these in as well.

I checked those as well. They were around $30 or so. Was looking more on the lines of Polarg or Raybrig. Polarg has the 9006 Luxy White 5000K Shinning Wizard Series Headlight/Fog Ligh Bulbs for $65. This of course changes my original yellow feel, to the obvious white look. AHHHHHHH, not quite sure what the heck to get!

Yea, I am a little dissapointed with the Piaa 9006 plasma Ion yellow 2500k bulbs for the fog light. They came out whiter than I expected. They are a bit more crisper, but still not what I expected.

I also changed the parking light bulbs to the Piaa plasma ion yellow wedge to better match with the fogs.
