got mine here: www.hidhouston.com They were $170 shipped and included the harness as well which I ended up not using.
just fogs...
my camera sucks, they look alot cleaner in person, these are 6K D2R replacements
I also got the high beams from the same website, I just don't have pictures yet.

I ran the trigger from the side marker light. The only downside is you can't turn off the foglights, they are always on even with the high beams. ...personally I have never had an instance when I have said, "damn I wish I could turn those off" LOL I some may have a different preference, but I like that they stay on with the markers, and high beams. With HID's in the lows. fogs, and highs all on at the same time, it really lights up the road

I bought (4) HID bulbs, (4) HID ballasts for my low beams and fog lights on ebay.
I had to buy a relay wiring harness for my foglights because only one was coming on (this is a common problem)
I paid a total of $162.00 for both HID kits and the relay. I installed it myself in under 10-15 minutes. The hardest part was taking out the drivers side low beam bulb and installing the HID bulb because there is no room for large hands to fit.
I also added a couple white LED's in my high beams DRL's for about $10 to match the kit.
The light output is much better then stock and night time driving is much easier, the glare that these lights produce really lights up the street signs, but slightly blinds on coming traffic, I had my friend driver my car behind me and it wasn't that bad
The color output on the ground can be best explained as a fluorescent white similar to the white color from a cold cathode tube or white LED like those keychain lights as shown below...
When looking directly into the headlight assembly you will see mostly birght white, but with a hint of bluish/purple.
I do warn you though before you make your final decision... If you get anything higher then 8000k you will be heavily flammed and harrased by people that are running 4300k-6000k kits because they think your lights don't put out any light on the ground.
In this pic below you can see how nice and white the light is on the ground...
Comparison to Sylvania Silverstars...
