Yes, my HID fogs are on whenever my HID low beams are on. They're both 6000k Philips Ultinon and match well.

hey e-It depends for me. sometimes, from the driver's perspective, I don't like they way the yellow light mixes with the bright white HIDs. They turn the white light more yellow. I like the crisp white light of the HIDs only. If I feel like pimpin I'll turn on the fogs

I always keep mine on. On the side note, I just got back from Europe and in Poland you can't use fog lights unless there is fog. I got pulled over for that.

I don't know that it's a Lexus thing or not, but up here everyone who has fogs on their cars leave them on. IMO it's a strictly for looks thing unless there IS a bank of fog you're driving through. Many oncoming drivers actually find them annoying, especially in rural areas away from the city lights. My advice, use them in fog and use them in the city, but out in rural areas turn em off as a courtesy to the other guy.
