Yes, the fog light bulbs are in fact 9006 and not 9004 as misprinted in the owners manual.

I did mine when I got the car, 8000K Low beams and fogs. Here's the link to the pics. And yes, the fog lights are 9006 while the Low beams are H-11.

Do those 8000k loook like the ones on the Evo 8s? From what I see, the Evo 8 have a blueish look, im not sure if its the 6000 or 8000. Could you take a picture from far away?

i hope you guys are aware that its not just the Kelvin that produces the output but its the reflector inside the Factory HID housing that gives off that look. Thats why when you see bmw's it has that blueish /purple/white look at different angles. same w/ evos
