Default Colored fog lights?

Anyone find colored replacement bulbs for our fog lights? Well '94 at least.
Just replaced one of mine and i think the bulb is HID? Don't these come in colors? Looking for a blue equivalent to fit.

Also a friend at said he retrofits the regular headlights with HID bulbs. He gut the stock light and stuffs in then glues in a HID bulb for 1/3 cost of stock light.

Be aware in most states it's illegal to have blue or red lights on the front of your car. Here in Texas you will get pulled over in a heartbeat. Keep that in mind.
