Go with HID fog's they're just as bright as your high beams. Trust me I know.

Keep in mind though that if you flash someone or turn them on and off intermittently to not blind oncoming traffic, the HIDs will not have warmed up properly, and their life will be drastically reduced. HIDs are made to stay on rather than go on and off for short periods of time.
