So gonna use these for now since my bumper cover needs replaced and I'm gonna have to remove it at some point over the winter and whenever I remove the bumper cover, I'll probably buy and install a 6000k HID kit so that they'll match, but hey they'll do for now I guess. Just bummed cuz those of you that know me, know how anal i am and how EVERYTHING has to match so I'm really bummed these didn't match but I'll get over it, and deal with it soon enough

Like I said whenever I swap the bumper over the winter I plan to get a set of HID's but for now I'll be happier with these I figure. Just couldn't deal with that color difference it was stickin out too much for me. It still won't match the 6000K perfect cuz the silverstars are 4000K color but at least they will look more like they belong.
Fogs next to the headlights, white not orange

At least it was $20 well spent, got $50 fog bulbs for $20 so it was worth the extra effort

So this was what I was waiting for. Now just gotta cut the stock oem fogs and brackets out, and drill the new holes and mount the projectors and the bumper goes back on

Moving this week, so gotta find time to cut out the stock fogs so I can get the new ones mounted to put the bumper back on, also got some interior work to do, but think if I get the bumper on, I'll just move it and do the interior work in my bigger garage. I'll post some pics once i get the fogs in there

ENGAGE MY VTEC BABY!!!!!!
nice shots man
I am getting a hold of some new parts from my parts hook up again.
I will check to see if they have any fogs from a RX300 or a IS300, they would look bright with some nice bulbs.
hit me up later on my email joseph.j.giguere@erac.com and I will get some pics up of all my new stuff I will be selling

OMG, thats is gonna be so blue! you wouldn't last a week driving around here in toronto without being pulled over!!
Maybe you should have used amber bulbs to contrast a bit. What color are the turn signals gonna be? blue as well? haha that would be pretty crazy. But im sure it will come out nice when its all put together. Are you highbeams green??

Turn signals are chrome amber bulbs, probably soon to be replaced with amber led's. And the blue just shows up on the camera, they really just look white, way brighter than the super whites I had b4, after the tinting they just look orange, these look white.

Had to put the bumper and hood on to move her to my new house, so here's a couple shitty pictures.
Couple of sweet panoramics my buddy took
New PIAA corners, look really blue on camera
Me and my baby, proud owner and sexy headlights. (Pic was not my idea)
Couple of outdoor camera phone pics
The smoked lower corners if anyone was interested
