I say you keep the fog lights and headlights the same color. In my opinion, if the headlight color that being halogen blue, will probably not look good with yellow. Right now i have hallogen lights on my projectors and my stock dirty yellow that came with the car on the fogs doesnt look good, so i plan to match both of them.

Contrary to popular belief, yellow fogs do NOT perform better than any white fogs in the fog. I don't remember the exact scientific reasoning, but it has to do with the water droplets in the fog are too big to be affected by the yellow light. All colours get reflected equally. If its just a yellow lens, that decreases output by 20%, so really, white fogs are the way to go.
So, if you like yellow because it looks better, then get it...and correct anyone you meet saying that yellow is better in the fog.
it's nice to know that the color doesn't make a diff, because I like my white ones. But I wonder, are halogen projector fog lights brighter than regular halogen based ones, such as the ones with multi-surface reflectors?
yellow shows more depth due to its low temperature.
