For me, I will be using the Philips 6000K HID conversion kit for the fog lights (H11).

Get whatever kit is in your budget; just remember you get what you pay for.

You got factory HIDS? If you do, you dont need a full kit. Just bulbs are needed.

600rr05 already mentioned 35. Most use 35w.

Wouldn't advise going with 50w+ ballasts - legality issue (too bright) and may have reliability with life of the bulbs and heating issues associated with as it may cause the housing to melt.
