Yellow Foglights

I was thinking about putting those yellow foglights that you see on race cars. I think Lexus had them for the old GS. I want to get round ones of course. My car is white. Where could I get these, and do you guys think it would look good? Has anyone done this?

thaks guys. Are your foglights scratched now? I feel as though the light doesn't reflect properly through the scrathed lenses. I am considering changing the entire unit. Has anyone done this.

Hey Man, I found the part number. I was looking thru my shelf looing for a PIAA box and not finding the one I was searching for. I found the box for the yollow fogs, they are made by APC number 50H3G. 55Watt Halogen bulbs.
Hope this helps.
