Fog lights

So ive been debating should i get 3000k bulbs or the 30000k bulbs on a silver c280. Which would look better? Any other recomendations would help. This is my car.

i have 5300k on mine and like them a lot. 3k is definitely more driver friendly for oncoming traffic and people in front of you, though.

I like the yellow fogs...so 3k FTW.

Considering the crucial times at which fogs are generally used, it also helps that the lower temperatures improve visibility tremendously as well.

So go 3K with stock lenses or 5K with yellow lamin-x on the lenses.

JDM is more functional.... yellow reflects less in fog... the bright white fogs downgrade the utility

The yellow fogs are really starting to grow on me, im probably going to go with 3000K sooner or later, i guess its good to switch around and have something new to look at, its easy to do !
