I just want to make sure I get as much light out as I can, and not make it look crazy blue. As far as fogs what did you get to make it appear like HID's?

my fogs are actual HID's, they dont just appear to be. 4300 will get you the most light output, 6k will give you a bluish tint, with a little less light output

I found this for you. Scroll down a bit and you will see AustinGTP's pic, its a good reference. Can really tell the difference between silverstars and HID's. I havent found any pics of fog HID's but imagine they'd be the same colour...use your imagination

Okay well I'm gonna get the 9007 6000k HID kit on the 1st post.....does anyone think that's a bad idea? As for my fogs.....which route should I go with? Also does that zzp kit have a warranty? How long do the bulbs last for?
