LED Fog Light Bulb?
Will these give me hyperflash? I know HID probably the best option.

LED fog lights
Why would they ? Fog lights don't flash. I have LED fog light bulbs and they are much brighter then OEM.

It has been so long ago but I believe mine are Cree bulbs that match the HID headlights as far as color.

I have 8000k HID bulbs in mine. I like them but the ballasts are total ****. Gone through two already and just lost them again. Replacement is free but I'm losing my patience with them.

If you are looking for bright white fogs. I would go with 5000k LED bulbs. No need for crazy bright HIDs with ballasts. Fogs really don't need to be that bright and on coming drivers will hate you anyway.

I bought HIDs for 80 bucks from one of the vendors here, probably the best money I spent
