Yellow fogs are actually more functional. I have yellow halogen bulbs for fogs. I only turn them on when needed, but they do a much better job than any white or blue fog.

Blue looks terrible on any car IMO.

+1

The yellow light does not reflect off water nearly as much as the white lights therefore it will cut through fog better and be more visible on wet roads.

yellow.
like others have mentioned, please keep the blue/green/red foglights off the BMW.
If you must have pretty fog light colors, buy a Civic. They're cheap.

WTF and on top of this they are 100% illegal. Any forward facing light that is not amber or white is illegal. Blue and Red are HIGHLY illegal no matter where you live (in the US).
