Default 6k low beams 3k fogs

The fogs are retro fitted with 92-94 es300 fog projectors so they don't shine all over the place. Makes driving at night fun now.

It looks perfect! I love it! 6K and 8K isn't much of a difference in appearance right? I'm really aiming for 8K...

Those 30,000k's look cool! Where did you get them? I've never actually seen anything above 12000k for sale.

Trust me, you do not want 8000k. Its too blue and the light output is horrible. I had 6000k and it was cool at first then it was just too blue, when i swapped to 5000k my light output was uh mazing i could actually see a crisp cut off line.
