Default White or yellow fog lights

I have a problem...I can't decide which fog lights to install on my IS350 yellow or white any output would be appreciated with pictures as well to how both look. Thanks for the help! I would be getting the iJDMTIY fsport lights unless anyone has better recommendations.

Yellow for the "jdm" look, white for the VIP look

White, so it'll match the rest of the lights on the car.

I put yellow bulbs in my fogs in honour of the late 1990s-early 2000s Lexus ES300s and GS300/GS400/GS430s, which had yellow fogs. It was a good memory for me as a teen car enthusiast. The Infiniti QX4 of that same vintage also had yellow fogs as OEM.

Its your choice really in the end.

I myself went with Yellow when I had ijDMfogs for a short period of time.
My reasoning was that the White was no where matching same color temperature as the LED headlamps and plus I like the look of Yellow fogs like all the older japanese luxury cars had.

I have white LED fog lights, the color matching is 8/10 if you stand close and hard to tell in a long distance. It is really bright and I love it, really doesn't matter which color you should go with. If I do it again I would give yellow a try.

There's also this kit, which is a alternative to the ijdm fogs. Has a little more styling.

If you use your fog lights are for functional use, amber.. if for looks, it's entirely on your preference.
