OK so since i got all the halo projectors/hid questions figured out.. I was needing some of your guys thoughts of light color. Should i get yellow, white, or blue fog light color.. And also should i get more white or more blueish for my headlights? BTW my car is red so ya just wanting to hear some opinions.

unless you have other lights on the front with yellow lenses id skip that.
go with clear lens and a fog bulb if you want yellow. id go with a high quality white bulb for fog/driving lamps.

for HID color id stick between 4200K (nice bright pure white) - and 6000K (slightlty less bright and bluish) any higher K and light output drops off quite a bit.

check with your local laws on the lighting color. i had a buddy that had a blue tinge to his headlights and the cops would harrass him on a nightly basis. they'd pull him over and hold a piece of white paper in front of the light.... if there was any blue seen, slapped with a ticket for illegal lighting.

Well if you have HALO's, I would go with either a 4300K HID setup for the headlights and run some yellow bulbs for your fogs. I think the pure white would look good with the red body and the yellow for the fogs gives a nice contrast, like how the IS300 Headlight/Foglight setup looks. Good luck
