Default what temperature fog lights??

Ok so I will be ordering HID's for my foglights this weekend. I currently have the yellow H3 halogen bulbs and have always loved the look of the first gen IS300. So my first thought was an obvious 3000k set for the fogs. But, I saw a 350z the other day with 4300k in headlights (which I have now) and fogs and it looked damn nice. So now I am torn, yellow or white, 3000k or 4300k?

So what would you guys do?...

ironman is correct but bright fog lights dont work well in fog in fact they blank out your view so yellow is best for fog conditions, what your doing by the sound of it is using the fogs as driving lights so why not fit spot/driving lights that way your not breaking any laws ( then again ) fit both

yeah I know the 3000k is the optimal temperature for seeing well in the fog, but to be honest it doesnt get too foggy here for that to really matter. I'm still torn, no one here likes the look of the bright yellow fogs?

yellow is American as the stretched limos have and it looks awesome but its side lights only ( yellowfogs well that's personal decision ) but they do the job
