You will never get an exact match when you put HID bulbs in the fogs. I know that my X5 headlights have a blue hue to it (though stock) and I put in phillips 4300k and they were too white looking.... I tried several other temps but I couldn't get a perfect match. The reason for this is the projector in the headlights has it's own color glass. Also, I found that the output of light was very distorted because the fog-light housing is not a projector-style housing..... but it's a good deal!! That's like half what I paid!!

There are a lot of HID kits out there for under $100 but they are not true xenon bulbs. They have a lot of fillers in them, making the color. Phillips and prolumen are two brands that have a pure xenon color, without the extra fillers. Also, they have strong capsules and are known to last. So beware of those Asian HID's!!
