          That looks good but will actually be less effective at doing their job because they will increase glare and make your eyes strain harder to see in bad weather conditions. I considered HID fogs but after researching found that it was a bad idea. Could be wrong but I've read that in more than a few places.

            you heard right...any color but white will do for fogs. In actual foggy weather apparently the white light will hinder visibility

              Looks great, I'm thinking about doing the same for my car, not sure still about visibility though. What Brand did you get and where did you buy them?

                    yeah you should have done 2300k bulbs for the fogs. Those are going to be useless in heavy weather conditions.

                          Why do you say that? Does the low angle of the fogs have something to do with the color tempature and light getting refelected back?

                              Xentec is the brand, 35w H3 bulbs, 6000k light output (you can change bulb K color anytime)...visibility in dry weather (I don't really have plans of driving my car in wet weather) it's awesome, the road is so bright...

                              I complemented my headlights so it would have the same look....plus the old stock output (yellowish doesn't do it)

                              Glare? Before my foglight upgrade, the HID output (like new cars) I get from the headlights actually makes a huge difference in my view of the road in rain weather.

                              I live in Long Island, NY...we don't really get much fog here
