Oh, ok. How is it different? Is it looks, functionality, reliability, or all three?
Definitely all 3. The main advantage is that OEM HID projectors have a specific beam pattern and cutoff so that you get the most out of your headlights and don't blind other people on the road. As a bonus, they look very sleek and clean, and are by far more reliable than plug and play kits. However, due to cost and skill required, projector retrofits are sometimes out of reach for some (including me). I just went with a high and low beam HID kit for my stock headlight housings. There is some glare, and there is definitely no distinct beam cutoff, but the added light on the road and brighter blue-white color is very nice. And paired with my yellow fogs, they look amazing at night.

Yeah, I'm going to be getting a high low kit soon. That's why I was so interested. I guess I'll just stick to my plan, they must not be that bad if you're going with it too. Thanks for the help! =)

My girlfriend is supposedly buying a fog kit for me from PW:JDM... I hope she gets yellow, but iif not then I'll use yellow bulbs.
Anyone have pics of the white lens/yellow bulb?

I think 50/50 really. I would most likely go with yellow for show and white for actual fog. I'm not sure how well yellow can see through fog that well.

Do you guys think this is a safe buy? I don't really mind the fact that they are replicas because I am on a limited budget. I also need lights that i can get locally (pick-up). Any recommendations where else i can look to purchase a set of amber/yellow foglights? btw i live in south bay area, CA. Im willing to drive up to 1-2 hours distance to pick them up. Price Range $50-$100.
