White Fog bulbs?

I just installed sylvania silverstar ultras for low and high beams. I also installed sylvania silverstars for my fogs, however, the fogs are really white like the ultras are. Does anyone know what kind of of white bulbs would match the ultra lows and highs?

no idea... but i just installed Sylvania Ultras in my high-beams and they were 'supposed' to be ~4-4300k... but they look exactly like stock. Kind of annoys me b/c i spent $50 on them and they are virtually the same.

I wanna have my lows, highs and fgos be all the same color (4300k) or damn near the same. I was hoping to avoid having to go HID on all of them... but i may not have any other options

Do you have the Ultras for the low beams also, I know those don't look exactly like stock cause I left one in and compared them to the wall before switching the other.

nah, i have a retro-fit in my lows. they are 4300k hid in tsx projectors.

i did the swap during dusk... so i couldnt really tell the difference. i looked at the highbeams themselves and they looked same as stock. i didnt look against a wall

Well I'm sure if you have the Ultra's I know they are whiter, but no where near HID, it just bothers me having my lows and fogs not be the same. But I dont want to get HID's, so I'm at a loss.

same thing for me... i wanted to try and avoid getting HIDs for my highs and fogs. but having them all be different colors bothers me.

nah
Silverstars will never be true white. Besides you're going for looks so the 5 buck ebay bulbs should do the trick to match the color
