how come my altezz fogs dont match my headlights they are the clear models, is it because they are halogen, and not xenon, if so, what do i do about that

well mine are the aftermarket alteazza fogs, they are clear, unlike mine, so wat are you saying i shoud do, buy new fogs, or what do you mean change the housing, not the bulbs?

my headlights are xenon so the have a blueish tinet like any xenon, my fogs are halogen, so i dont know how to match, they still have a yellowish tint

You need to upgrage the fog lights to HID.

My fogs are the same way. Steve...I think you have the clears on your IS too, but your BULB is probably not the one that came with the IS. When you buy the clear housings (which myslef and this guy did) thats all you get, just a housing. So you have to use the existing HALOGEN bulb to stick back in. Therefore the HID from the headlights do not match the HALOGEN from the fog. Therefore the top lights look like Leus lights and the fogs look like Ford headlights (lol color contrast between real cars and half ass cars). The fogs just have a dingy yellowish look to them. They dont match at all. I too would like to know how to get rid of this. Thanks,
