Question H.I.D Kit

wondering if any of you have any pics of H.I.D's installed in your 06-07 Fogs on the coupe?

It's not recommended to run HID kits in the fogs because it will cause glare to oncoming traffic.

Kelvin, not Kalvin.

Why would you think 5000K or 6000K would match the OEM 4300K?

I've got a set that is supposedly 4500k and the difference in color compared to the headlight is obvious. It doesn't look bad though and basically blends together at a distance. Anything higher would stand out and look cheap IMO. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures.

5k and definitely 6k is NOT going to match the OEM 4.3k - not even close.

6k is going to look "RICE" blue all the way.

Come on, lets not be lazy. A quick search on GOOGLE will yield plenty of different types of color temp charts where you can see exactly what the differences (relative) will be. Do your homework!
