Default Pic Request: HID's in yellow fogs

Hey guys. I found a good deal on an HID kit (with bulbs). Does anyone have pictures of their yellow foglights with HID's (4300K)? Does it make the fog lights more yellow? Because that's what I want. If not, I will get some 3000K HID bulbs for them. Thanks in advance!

3000k is yellow. 4300k is going to be more toward white. if you want bright yellow get 3000k. thats what i have and theyre really bright yellow. if i remember ill post a pic tonight.

That's what I am looking for. Thanks a lot. I am going to get the 4300K kit then. The yellow capsule in our stock fogs looks like they should be sufficient in keeping the yellow look. Plus, 4300K will offer greater visibility (with higher lumen).

forsure, just to warn you. before the 4300k hid fog lights do warm up they will look green but once its warmed up (in a couple minutes) it should be bright yellow.

i actually live in the city u do....i have 4300k in my yellow fogs and they look YELLOW as hell. i love it. i went so far as to replace oem hids with a brighter 4300k and my high beams are a aftermarket 4300k
