HID Fog Color Opinions Needed...

Recommended Posts

I am putting HID's in my fog lights on my 5 series.

 

My questions is, what color should I go with? Should I try and match my stock Hella HID headlights, or would it look good switched to yellow?

 

I have seen the way yellow looks on some cars and really like it. I just don't know if it will look good in mine. Any suggestions?

 

My fogs are the older reflector style, not the projector style you see on many cars with the yellow fogs.

 

This is my car.

Um yellow light is what you need to see in fog/rain better, don't fucking "rice" it, make them functional.

 

For sure. I have yellow (3000 K) from VVME in my mkIII and they look nice, but actually WORK great in rain, snow, fog and of course dry (Even on new, black blacktop). I'm lowered a bit and VR6 oil pans sit below the subframe by a bit so I have to be on the look out for potholes. No problem with the yellow, I'm sure the matched you will have issues though.

 

Yellow =/= rice.

 

Yellow = functional.
