You could get some yellow lamin x for your fogs. They're not a bad investment because they also prevent your fog lense from cracking if a rock were to hit it while driving which many people do unfortunately experience.

I actually just ordered them. For 20 bucks I figured it was worth trying. My question now is if I should get a new hid kit and if so which one should I get or can I purchase yellow bulbs. I found hyper yellow h7 bulbs. Theyre 2500k but will that be bright enough?

Only thing about using yellow HALOGEN bulbs instead of HIDs is that lamin-x tends to get burn marks because they run hotter. Get 3500k HID bulbs if you want to prevent that. Works great for me.
