OEM foglights VS PIAA (aftermarket)
What do you guys think, OEM fog lights look better, or PIAA foglights look better? I think VXCL has a nice set of piaa fogs on there, is there any difference in beam pattern, which is more expensive? I can pretty much get the OEM fogs for 120 shipped, which then i need to buy 40 buck bulbs for them, how much do piaa's run? thanks in advance

The factory look so much better. I had some after markets and they look to small and outta place. As for beam pattern i have no clue but does it matter since you have HIDs unless you are doing yellow for fog?

Mine are CATZ XSL. I Love 'em. Not as overweight as the OEM style.
Dont mind the red pipe in this one....

I chose getting OEM instead of aftermarket because of the size. They fill the space in the bottom grill nicely and were really easy to install. If there not bright enough for you it's also easy to replace the bulbs.
