Default Whats a good HID set-up for 2007?

Hey guys, I'm looking to give my 07' abit of a refresher. I havent done anything since I bought it new when I tinted the windows, magnaflow and CAI.
I would like to do a HID conversion on the headlights and fog lights. Any recommendations?

A lot of people just order them off ebay and I believe the brand they get is xenon or some thing like that.

I ordered mine from ebay and have the 8k ones for my lows and fogs. They aren't to expensive but I have not had any problems with my low beams what so ever. But I keep having problems with my fog light bulbs. My passenger side one just goes out so often but I'm about to buy a new ballest and bulb to see if the ballest is the problem.

Get some, I'll put them in. Dosen't take long. Just need to worry about where you mount them. They cause static in the radio if placed wrong.

I've got 6K in lows and fogs. Completely satisfied with the look and performance of them.

what you guys think about the 12k bulbs on ebay? Too much light? Will they last? Problems with melting wires? I could care less if I blind someone, I am looking for the HI's anyway.Thanx

I ordered mine from DDM Tuning. Google it. 6k fogs and lows. It makes a world of difference.
