Opinion. Yellow HID fogs or LED ?

definitely going to do LED headlights. My question is should I go dual-led and have matching headlights and fog lights? I used to like that but now I think it's kind of tacky and I'm thinking about doing yellow HIDs. thoughts?

PIAA has a yellow LED kit. You ought to check it how. Has a steep $200 price tag just like the VLEDS LMZ LED headlight bulbs I put it.

Did the yellow LED fogs. I feel like they come out a little greenish though.

To be fair, it's likely at least some of the color tinge is due to the camera trying to figure out white balance in a scene with many different light sources that have wildly varying spectra. Our eyes and brains are a lot better at figuring out white balance than a camera.

It is a little green-yellow. I'm considering getting a yellow film installed over the lights to correct.
