Are there any different light bulbs for the 2 fog lights down low? like replace them with bright whites or any type of halogen lights or anything?

there's plenty of replacement bulbs for you to choose from. The fog lights take H11 bulbs. I wouldn't suggest getting LEDs because the output will not be as great as just getting halogen bulbs or going the HID route.

Go the HID route, you won't regret it.

- Do the fogs need different power or something for HID's?

- Or can you just buy HID fog bulbs and throw them in?

- What kind of bulb would I need to match the stock HID color?

The HID fogs draw power from your fog light harness or you can draw them right from the battery with a relay harness.

You cannot buy HID bulbs and throw them in, you will need an H11 HID kit.

4300k would be the closest match to stock HID color.
