Yellow fog's... maybe with the right color on the body.
Yellow high beams... NO.
Remember, It's probably not the best idea if you are still debating over it. Besides unaltered lenses look so much better.

I wouldn't do the yellow high beams bro. Yellow fogs are acceptable.

I'd agree, i have a black truck with yellow fogs and 8k lows and highs, and i feel like sc's look so much better with like pure white with yellow.

i hardly use my highbeams cause my hids and fogs are normally bright enough.

are you talking about just yellow bulbs? or yellow high beam housings? if your just gonna put yellow bulbs in your highbeams i don't think it matters either way, cause nobody will see your highbeams i hope! hopefully if your highbeams are on nobody is in front of you. so if you have yellow bulbs nobody will see them any way, the road will just be more yellow of course..

i have 4300k hid lows and 3000k fogs. I put yellow bulbs into my high beams because say the situation occurs when i need the high beams in bad weather, the fogs go off when highs are on. Yellow cuts through better than white in bad weather so why not? but in terms of yellow vinyl, i wouldn't for either fogs or highs as i like to keep the light housings clear.

yeah i wouldnt use a yellow tinted lense but yellow bulbs would be great
yellow is also alot easier on your eyes when driving for long periods of time in the dark and being a lower kelvin rating you get higher actual light output so you can see better anyways

I did the same and for the same reasons. And also agree with not doing the housings unless you have a black car for the fogs. it aint that bad but i kinda grew away from it.

i have 10k lows and 3k fogs and i never need my high beams. but if i do they have yellow bulbs which replaces my fogs because they shut off with highbeams.

i have daytime lights in my highbeams so with parks and fogs on its ugly with the yellow daytime and yellow fogs. so i always run my lows.
