Your HIDs are found within the round, bulbous projectors seen right under the TSW in your profile pic
Different color DRLs... Hm. Not sure about that. DRLs are your high beam halogen bulbs being run at lower power during the daytime. Many people go LED DRLS to get a nice bluish color or whatever, but they lose the functionality of their high beam halogens in doing so.
Other lighting mods... People like to swap out their stock D4S hid bulbs 4300k with like 6000 or 8000k color temperature ones. Lose a bit of output, but it looks better, or so I hear.
Other than that, HID fogs are brighter than your luminic replacements.
