3000k is yellow which is the best for the foglights if you go this route.

4300K is the most ideal for light output, 6000K is too blue IMO. I prefer 5000K because you are still close to the light output of the 4300K, but it's just a bit more whiter.

HID is about getting MORE light output. If you want to stand out (in a negative way of course), then go ahead with 6000K and above. Then you might even be putting our less light than the original halogens made.

4300K is the ONLY correct color for low and high beam applications.

For fogs, 4300K is good, as well as something in the 3000K range for a yellow light.
+3 Listen to these guys. They know what they are talking about.
