I just purchased and installed a set of 8000K HID Fog Lights from member brabusw209amg (John). Overall experince was excellent: shipping was super fast, commincation was great (John even took my call at close to 11pm his time to answer an install question), and instillation was easy (took me about 45 mins, John's DIY was a big help). Here are a few pictures of before, after, and side by side 8000k vs stock:

do you plan to change your low beam to 8000k to match?

yeah....i think u also need HID fogs and 8000K low beams. THe low beams look like halogens now. 8000K DOES look very nice on a white car. I'm not a fan of 8000K but on Alpine white, it's real nice. Thanks for the pix!

Wow, those look great! The side by side comparison really puts the factory fogs to shame. Definitely a must add to my mod to do list
