Default the point of fogs is to spread the light L&R in front of you. HIDs will project it down the road
which is what your headlights are already doing.

Default Not sure i agree... I changed the H7 FOGs to HIDS and it looks good to me.. Still see fine to the
Sides, Although i wouldn't do the 8000k if i had to do it again, something more yellow i think woulda worked better

I just Bought a HID kit off ebay. Pretty simple to change over

what happens when you turn on your high beams when it's foggy out?
