OEM fog lights installed with PIAA yellow ion h3 bulbs

http://community.webshots.com/album/65341839KaXfzU

also for some odd reason my driver side front tire has MAJOR inner wear, the other new looking tires, though i changed them all at the SAME time over a year ago, what's the deal with it??

one more thing, i was moutning the ground wire for the fog and then i unscrewed this silver nut on a silver metal box, near the transmission cooler or something, but when i got the nut loose it SPRAYED like "psssssssssssssssssssssh", is that the AC freeon that's coming out? i closed it back somewhat quickly, but damn, bad place to put the ground

btw, thanks dust again for helpin me out on the install, and jwong

Your lights are too BLUE for me.

You cant see in the rain with thoes lights.
At least not here. I took out my low beams and replaced w/ stock.

But mine were not that blue either.

The fogs look nice

Dude! They're HID's not ghetto hyperwhite garbage, they're waaaaaayyyyyyyyyy brighter than stock. I've seen them in person, have you? Plus don't you know that the optics of the camera changes the way it looks.

I like that look. It looks like the Lexus IS 300's light set-up. So you've got HIDs, the new fogs and I was wondering what kind of lights you have for the amber blinker and running lights?

the clear corner blinker is just a piaa xtreme white bulb, does not match at all, i have been meaning to get new bulbs, the wedge bulbs on the clear corner are the piaa yellow ion 168 sized bulbs, pretty nice, and on the top wedge bulbs in the main housing are just some cheap LED 168 bulbs that are supposedly bright but aren't really

u should put an ion yellow piaa in ur headlight corners. im usin amber right now in mine with my hids. i like the sleek oem look, but im thinkin of swappin to piaa ion yellows to be just a lil bit diff from everyone else. it depends on the contrast of color bewtween my projector hid setup and the yellow or amber. the ion might be too bright.
