Im debating between 3k and 5k HIDs for my fogs, but id like to see pics. I have yellow bulbs now, but want to see what HID looks like.

Anyone got pics?

 

if so, run 3000k, that way they will help you in the fog, not just look good!

 

You'll need a bi-xenon kit since the high beam is also the same bulb.

I'd do 3000K, but curious as well to see what this looks like. I know the 07+ guys typically do HID kits here, but most 1st gens i've seen just do the bulbs.

If you do a white light, get whatever K valve matched your low beams. It would be interesting to see 4 white HID projected beams so close to each other

 

hmm 1st gen Hid fogs here =]

10k matchin the low beams, just blindin lol

 

My advice... don't do HID's in the fogs. I ran 8000k's in both the headlights and fogs for about a 8 months this time last year. Worst idea. First of all 8000k, looked great, but couldn't see for the life of you. Also, I would get other drivers lights flashed at me ALL the time from the excessive glare. Since our headlights are reflector headlights, it causes a signicant amount of glare to other drivers. Proper way to install HIDs in your headlights is to do a projector retro.

If you want color matched in the fogs to your low beams, just get some halogen bulbs that match. There are plenty of options out there.

 

iiiiiekoiiiii whoa... you are running an X with Staggerd Wheels... Nice...

 

I did a projector retro on my coupe and went with 3000k on the bottom for the fogs.
The first pic shows the fog lights with 3000k bulbs, the second shows a bit of the color from my color modded low beams with a 5000k bulb.

 

Keep the yellow

 

I got Xentech 3000K

 

BTW they look much better in person.. I like the Yellow but im thinking of getting 6000K headlights to contrast my fogs better... Ill try to get a better camera for a higher quality picture

 

I got 8,000k headlights and fog lights... And love them...

 

i havent decided what i should do yet, im thinking too. for me however i have fog lights in the bottom grill, so for now im thinking 6k in the fogs down there, 5k in the headlights, leave stock fogs. maybe i should throw another set of 5k's in the fogs too, cause out in the middle of nowhereville i find that my headlights really dont work to well. their beam throw kinda sucks actually.

 

All i gotta say is that.. my fogs are brighter than my headlights... =( hahah atleast i can see very well close up... haha i really need to get better headlights..when you figure something out Gizmo134 let me know.

 

my current setup is stock fogs/high, my own little puny halogen projector fogs down below, and 8k headlights which came with the car, and every time i make a turn or hit a bump they blink out. aka they suck.
the 8k isint a bad color, eassy on the eyes, but i like the 6 a bit better. but yeah deff, if i need light i just hit the stock fogs. their throw is exactly the same (makes a hell of alot of sense.... ???) and theyre brighter. i figure the lower fogs will hopefully throw better (as of now they work well, but arent exactly bright enough, so gonna figure out what is needed to get decent light out of the front.

 

for those who ran HID for fogs are they bi-xenon or just single filaments.

i've been thinking about going 3k fogs, i barely use my highbeams at all. so single filaments would make sense for me plus if i hit the highbeam that would mean my fogs turn off and people get the signal i'm trying to flash them in a sense.
