Should i get LEDs or HID?
I want to match my fogs to my 6000K headlights, I may not match them, because I want to try 8000K fogs.
I'm on the fence about it, should I get 6000K LEDs or go HID? I know the LEDs tend to have problems, but I've got the V-LED parking and corner lights, and I'd order the fogs from V-LEDs too.
Thoughts?

HIDs for sure. The LED fogs aren't that bright.

Depends on if you are going for functionality or utility. HID kits in the fogs are very bright, BUT are very blinding to oncoming traffic, so it's almost like driving with your brights on. So, unless you're a total jerk driver, you probably won't want to drive around with them on all the time. LEDs look great, function more like DRLs and you can run them all the time, they don't help light the road though.

I know your thread says to use the V-LEDs.
Have you had any bad experience with the fogs? I know a lot of people have had V-LEDs die out, and taking off the bumper is a hassle.... so I don't want it to be a regular experience. (I have the parking and corner lights from them, and so far so good *crosses fingers*).
Let me know.
