CLs with amber foglights

Does anyone have any pics of amber foglights on a CL? Always thought they looked good on Lexuses, but I've never seen any on a CL.

i had this idea in my head also. i wanted to actaully install is300 fog lights. i did some research on ebay and found em for like $30 per side but the biggest problem is fitting them in my bumper. it would have to be a custom job.



i think that thoose fog lights would look really nice if done on a first gen cl.

I was going to use them in my dual setup but i think i would get a much better look and color output with clear lenses and yellow piaa bulbs

the yellow lense i tested did not put out as much light as i would like since the lense is yellow but that is the one i have for sale on ebay

you hsould buy it, its really cheap starting price




CHECK MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE PROJECTOR PARTS TOO!!!!!!!

I love the contrast between the yellow fogs and HID's on the IS300's. I bought a pair of CATZ yellow projector fogs (very bright and yellow like the Lexus's). They're an oval shape. I will be refitting the top corner light next to the low beams with a socket for a parking/turn bulb and riwiring the turn signal there. Then cutting out the clear corner where the turn signal was and mounting the fog lights there. I like the look of the the fog right below or just a bit outside the lowbeams. Those are my plans. Got the HID's now just need the fogs in. It will be week or two before I'll have it done, but will get some pics then.

yeah.. i know what u mean... u like the foglights wider then narrow..

i dont really like where they placed the foglight on CL either.. too narrow.. like teeth.. not like the 2nd gens and the other acuras..

i agree with "wider is better" on the fog lights. it gives it a meaner/aggressive look.
