No kidding it's out of line.

Functionally speaking in fog, the yellow light will make you more visible to others anyway. All fog lights should be yellow IMHO.

I love it so much my other vehicle has yellow fogs too.

Why do you think lexus and the new high end Toyota's have moved away from yellow fogs now..
they even have projectors now in there fogs these days..
Its just all personal preference. neither one is right or wrong. i personally like the look of 3000k fogs. i have them on my 3GS and love the way it looks.

I'm putting in 2500K Hyper Yellow fogs and I've ordered Garax 8000K low beams. I've run that setup for years on my other vehicles. Personally I love the contrasting look and the 8000K gives off plenty of light. It's only 200 less lumens than the 6000K and still more than twice the output of stock halogen.
