Default Headlight / Foglight HID combo ?

Hey wsup! Recently my driver side foglight flickers like a strobe light at stops. Thinking maybe the bulb or ballast is going out. Currently I got 8k HID for my low beams and foglights. Was thinking of switching everything up. Was thinking of going 10k HID on lowbeam and 3k(yellow) on foglights. I liked this color combo a lot, had this on my 05 Chrysler 300. Just wanted to see what everyone else is running if using HID's and if possible some pics ?

I'll try upload a pic of my current setup soon.

Took some pics earlier..what my setup currently looks like.







Hey wsup badboylx04 , yea I remember. I'm glad the current motor in your car isn't beyond repair.

Hopefully things come back together smoothly for you

My 300 with 10k low and 3k fogs:

The hids I get are from a local guy I met several years ago slanging kits on craigslist for $55 a kit.
I like the quality and price since and always went to him when in need. Most recently he's been selling these brand:



I have a friend who bought a kit off ebay, xentec brand...this brand was kinda poor. Had them on his 2000 Integra and they looked more like colored bulb affect. =P
