Default GT/CS lower valance fog light bulbs

Anyone have a v6 or GT/CS with the lower valance fog lights (instead of the grill lights)?
They do not match my white headlights (probably 4500k), the lower fog lights are a ugly yellowish color.
Not looking for powerful fog lights but does anyone know where I could get a direct replacement bulb to change the color?

The fog lights on my 13 GT/CS are utterly useless and barely put out any light. That is the biggest issue I have with them and the second is the color.

So I was looking at getting HID bulbs to actually match the color of my HID headlights. All the halogen bulbs just won't match. These GT/CS fog lights are completely useless, no light output.
The problem is the fog lights in the lower valance are reflector housings versus the projector housings needed for HID bulbs.
It looks like this is extremely frowned upon as it could blind other drivers. I am thinking that is only for headlights as these housings are pretty small.
I would also only be getting a 35w,
like these. like these.
Was going to try 6000k to match the factory HIDs.

Anyone have experience with this?

I can't comment much on the 13's, but I have the GT/CS bumper on my 06, with the Shelby fog light kit made by Piaa. they are so bright I could run without headlights.

Can you tell me more about how you figured out how to get useful fog lights in your bumper/lower grille? I've spent a couple of days banging my head against this w/o success.
