Default Fog lights for IS-F

I want to purchase some new fog lights for my 2011 IS-F that will be a better color match or whiter than my 4300k low beams. Im considering the H11 Philips CrystalVision Ultra Bulbs and the H11 OSRAM Nightbreaker Plus Halogen Bulbs. Another set I saw were the H11 Nokya Halogen Bulbs and it says they are available with the arctic white option which has a color around 7000k.Has anyone used these before??? Also if you have any pics or have any info that would be great. Any assistance is much appreciated.

Halogen bulbs are not going to give you a pure white HID look.. many halogen bulbs may advertise the color rating at 6000k or 7000k or whatever, but the actual color is closer to 4000-4500k. Halogen bulbs by design produce a dull yellow light, most aftermarket halogen bulbs are either gas filled or coated with a tint or a combination of both to produce the "whiter" color.
