not possible.

the caps will kill light output and probably lessen the life of the bulb. spend almost 400 bucks on 3000k hid kit. but i don't even think that looks to yellow all things considering from pics


or you can just trade in the acura for a lexus.

I think the yellow film is your best bet. The lexus foglight is standard bulb behind a yellow lense.

I have PIAA Plasma Ion bulbs in my TL. They were about $50 but I think that they were worth it. They are brighter than the stock and very yellow. They are not as deep as the Lexus, I was going for the same color and did not want to use the yellow film. They are the same color as the bulbs in demolition_x's TL

yellow fogs

bought the 9006 yellow caps from HIDtech.com. heres the results, looks real nice in person. has a real deep gold yellow to them. i replaced the glass lenses with the lexan stuff and decided to do the yellow fog mod since the covers were off

i dont know how to post the pics so that they show up, but here are the links:

I used Rockblocker's yellow film and Mtec yellow blubs and it gives off a good yellow. It's not as deep as the Lexus fogs, which was what I was going for, but it's pretty close.
