Upgrading stock fogs to a white-blue with pictures

I would really like to upgrade the yellow disgusting fog lights to a whiter (or a tint of blue) light. I have used silverstars in the past, but have not used them with HID's. Im not looking for a HID foglight kit.
Please correct me if im wrong, but I have a 04 tl and believe the foglights are 9006, the the corner lights inside the headlight behind the plastic amber piece is 168?
I am looking foward to soon clearing and blacking my headlights out, and would like to get this done.
Please post pictures of your aftermarket foglights with HID's on so I can see how white they are. Also please post what foglight bulb you have

These are HID fogs on a 3series. Very bright in person and 100% pure white. Almost like an LED

thanks, but I wasnt really looking for the hid fog kits. I was looking to see if someone has cheap blue lights or some silverstars in with pictures so I can see which one is the whitest with a tint of blue.

Even though you probably dont want to hear this, I would say go with HIDs..I have them, and had several different bulb setup...nothin compares.

I was in the same boat as both of you. I went through 2 pairs of bulbs, neither provided me the color, nor the light output I wanted. I also went through the trouble of installing a yellow glass capsule inside the headlamp...at the end, patience is the key. Have the patience to save up a little more, and you will be more than happy with the results. After all, it is a TL, so why not put some quality products on there rather than hid-look a likes. Plus, you will have a much better night driving experience.
