fog lights

So i have 6000k hids that I'm going to be installing as soon as i order a relay harness but I was wondering if 6000k in the fog light will make the fog lights less useful in the fog or will they make it easier to see in the fog?

umm, there not useful in the fog to begin with. The stock bulbs in the fog lights are just regular halogen bulbs, they are just bascially extra lights, so they will be useful with HID's in them, here are my 8000k HIDs in my fogs...

most likely, it looks good with HIDs in the fogs.
