Finally pulled the trigger and ordered some new HIDs for the car. I hate having lights that don't quite match, unless it's 3000k or yellow fogs. Ordered a relplacement set of D2S bulbs in 6000k as well as the DDM Raptor 35w kit in 6000k H11 bulbs for the fog lights.
I didn't decide to do any sort of relay harness or anything crazy like that. If I was adding HIDs to the low beams, I would consider it, but since the fogs are more of an auxilliary bulb, I don't think they'll need the relay harness.
Here are the links I used:
D2S bulbs:

Raptor 35w HID kit with ballasts:

I decided on 6000K because I did want a little more blue tint in the light, but didn't want to sacrifice much in terms of light output. My friend has 8000K's on his Fusion and they're bright as hell (also has a 55w kit for low beams).
With our low beams being projectors, the D2S swap is easy. No need for any additional parts, aside from the bulbs.
I'll post pics as a baseline, and an after as well. I wanted to write up a thread to show in more detail what I did with the system.
Oh, and the whole setup shipped to my door was $80. Not too shabby. Not a lifetime warranty, but I'm honestly not all that worried about them.
