Default Ideas for the front lights?

I have a 2008 Gs 350, and I want to change the front of my lights. I was thinking maybe like for the fog lights HID yellow and make the day lights match the head lights. Or make everything match? Any ideas? Pictures would help if you have any.

If you can, can you take a picture at night time or when they look good and post it here. So I can see how it looks. That would be great full

Sorry for the terrible phone pics ..I did a 6k low beam with headlight tint, 3k DRL, and 3k fog lights with foglight tint. I like contrast ^__^

HID light sources in halogen reflectors have terrible beam patterns.

My DRL used to be blacked out with yellow tint on the fog lights. I've since removed the tint off of both lights and upgraded the fogs to 5k HID.

Thank you for the response. That's looks nice. But I have a white color I think all blue would look good. Maybe make all like the headlight color my DRL and fog lights. Any more pictures guys to help me out.

My HID Fogs are an exact match to the headlights. You may want to check out the following thread it shows what LED looks like.

I kinda like the yellow tint on the highs and fogs. Kinda reminds me of the cars from the LeMans series. Have all HID's as well, 35watt minus 55watt for my high beams. Them things are freaking bright! Was thinking about throwing some 100watt HID in for the high beams to have a little more umph.. Lol
