Default Question about HIDs

I have a 2008 is250 and it has the stock hid lights i think they are 4300k. If i wanted to change to 6k would i have to buy a whole kit or just change the bulbs? And for the fogs would i need a kit also?

Garax for the HID bulb change. Fog lights are your choice of hid brands

6k has a little bluish tinge to it. 8k will be more blue. Depends on the manufacturer though how each kelvin will look like
