Cool What to do with my lights?

some advice would be great here.

Firstly, I got clear 05+ headlamps, fogs etc
Secondly, I pre-ordered a HID conversion kit and received it recently, now look at this.... Point is, the HID 6000K headlamps are so damn good, it makes the rest of the lights look VERY yellow. I don't know what the heck to do..

BI-Xenon or get matching fogs and driving lights. Can I replace the bulbs in the fogs? What you guys think of this look below... so far..?

You should get a white city light made by Polarg (Japanese) and install a HID kit for the fog. That's what I did on my car to match the top and bottom lights.

GPI did you purchase direct from the website http://lightlens.com/s-cart/form.phtml?g_intCatID=30 ? Product ID M13 or M14 for the city lights?
