I don't quite understand what the color of the car has to do with HIDs.

Just so you know the red tinted HID isn't any where near as bright as the higher colors. It may look good but you may not like the way they light up the road.

higher the number the less light, and starts to becoem Gay/ricer. i think anything over 12000k is gay and dumb looking.

He wants them for his FOGS, not his headlights.

That said, Mr Policeman tends to frown on red(ish) lights on the front of the car. And as pointed out, the higher the kelvin number, the lower the light output.

u would go with like a 8000k on the foglights,
and them maybe like if yur gonna do headlights,
like a 6000k for the headlights. caz that red tintcoat is
like a luxury car color, and that will kinda give u that luxury car look.
bright white headlights, and fogs that have a blueish white tint

if you want a red/orange look HID get a custom low kelvin color.

3000K in the fogs, and 8000K in the headlights. Thats what I have in my new car and it looks amazing. Kinda like the Lexus look.
