Don't put HIDs in your foggies.
Not much need to even use foggies in Perth.

don't see a point on foggies, seriously
you do realise its illegal to have foggies on, unless there's fog (its perth, how often do we get fog) and its pouring down (again, its perth, not that often)
and i wouldn't want to be driving near you if you had foggies with HIDs in them, as you'll either blind me or ppl around me which could cause an accident

seriously, spend your $ on things that are useful

turbo car like cold air
CAI can be either a ducting directing cold air to your air box or a pod filter with piping extended from the intake into the guard behind your wheel arch (this option removes air box)
2nd option is best done with an ecu reflash so you don't kill your motor after prolonged time

i suggest you dont clog this thread on hid with CAI question

You wouldn't want to be using your fogs with any oncoming traffic - it would def piss them off.

You can get HIDs in 3000k - which is more the yellow colour fogs 'should' be.

55 watt HIDs put out around 5000 lumens of "light brightness"
