Wrong bulbs. Your need REAL D2S hid bulbs like the ones listed on www.europeanautosport.com under either HID or D2S page from AdvancedOptik, Philips or PIAA. Anything else is unproven.

Note the 'HID' ones on ebay are $20 from China- stuff that will blow up in your housings sending glass everywhere. Dont go looking on ebay for bulbs, its full of complete garbage and weeding out the good from the bad is not something I want to do for me Evo.

For fog lights check out www.hoen-usa.com or the link above for the AdvancedOptik bulbs. Hoen is German made, extremely popular with the M3 guys.
