    The perfect bulb combination??

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    My front left turn signal and front right fog lamp have gone out. Time for an UPGRADE!

    I did some searches but, didn't find a complete answer to the best possible color and brightness combo for all bulbs in the front (turn signals, fogs, and high beams) of the car to match the xenons as close as possible. I'm sure someone on here has done this and has some really good looking pics and advice.

    You would need HID fogs to match your your xenon headlights.

    Just don't get yellow fogs with the HID headlights. It looks terrible. (In my opinion, of course.)

    there are no standard halogen bulbs that'll match the color but, not the brightness?

    Re: The perfect bulb combination??

    For turn signals a got some clear bulbs and painted them to color match my car. Some how they turned out very close and IMO they look very good (there is a pic in my profile with them on). But the cops here dont care about having amber bulbs or not. I have been running blue turn signals in my other car for 4 years now with no problems(rice I know)
