I'm assuming Hamy's Prelude and Triple8Sol both have PIAA ion crystal bulbs? I don't get why prelude's much more yellow than Triple8Sol's

It might be my camera, but its sure isn't a trick. I have 25+ more pics of my car with the fogs on. Honestly they look just this yellow in real life.

Well the 02-03 fog light lens is thicker, it's glass, and it's kind of frosted. On the prelude it's plastic (I believe) and it's like the "euro" clear style.

Maybe the bulbs are also different sizes and/or wattages...

Yes we both have PIAAs. Triple8Sol is correct about the differences in the fogs, my prelude fog lights are off of a JDM prelude and can't be bought here in the US. The lense is glass, but they are ment to have yellow bulbs in them.
