I got Xennon's 5K D4S bulbs to change them out from the 4300 and V-Leds 5K 28LED 32W bulbs for the fogs. The LEDs are on back order and should have by the end of the month.

The head lights have a very slight bit less yellowing, but i wanted them to match the fogs.

My headlights have an really purple cutoff from the phillips 6000K bulb change. I love it, cuz I use to retrofit headlights and do color mods on the headlight projectors to get that purple/blue flicker. I also have 6000K HID kit on my foglights. The fogs r alittle bluer during the day but at night, more white and matches the headlights and LED lights sumwhat. I like it. But I have an F Sport GS350 tho, not the luxury/premium/base one. Sum1 needs to experiment with the LEDs in the headlights, so we can swap them to an more 5000K-6000K temp color.

Probably not as blue as the LEDs.

I would go with 6000k D4S bulbs for a better match.
