Its normally pretty hard to color match HIDs. Ive heard that the Xenondepot 6K volt kit matches up nicely

It depends. Some companies say a certain color is 6K when it may be the 8K color for another company

Completely true. I changed his HID bulbs like a million times. Make sure you buy them from somewhere were returns are easy (like amazon) so you can return if you dont like how the match or something.

V-led parking lights are high quality and match alright. I have 5000K xenon depot low beams and the 5000K parking lights from.them match alright.

Garax 6000K perform pretty decently.

If you want the best output for the color, than it's Philips Ultinon 6000K.

Keep in mind that your low beams are projectors and your fog lights are reflectors so it will be rather hard to get a truly perfect match. Be very careful about aftermarket D4S bulbs. We have many customers that have tried other brands and end up going with our D4S HID bulbs due to flickering issues with their other brand bulbs. We used to have issues as well with our D4S bulbs (several years ago) until we finally found a very high quality aftermarket supplier (manufactures for OEM as well). Make sure to take advantage of our summer madness sale to save 15% on orders over $150 (for a limited time).
