I saw that you have fog light 6000k,is it also yellow? I don't want to have fog lights yellow, I want blue one. Which should I put? So what about upper beam is it possible to make it also bluish?

thanks.

I acutally change my fogs out again yesterday. Bought a set of those slim digital ballasts. Here's a pic of it. 6000k top and bottom all from ijdmtoy. If you want more blue then I would go for 8000k.
