Between 7-12k per HID Kit.

Please dont run HID's in the headlamp as well as fogs without projectors, your going to annoy a lot of people.

So yellow fog lamps serve no purpose. In fact modern fog lamps are no longer yellow.
Nice info Ram, thanks.

Just to be clear when I said yellow I dont mean the local yellow fogs or the yellow filters.

I stated 4300k HID Headlight and 3000k HID for the fogs as these would offer the best combination of visibility. AFAIK it is not COLOUR but the colour TEMPERATURE that affects visibility, illumination and output.
