the car is actually clean, the pic was takin at 12 midnite so thats the reason its a weird tinge. I like the fogs that color, cause i love the look of a lexus comin at me, so thats why i did it. I had the all blue, but a bulb blew and i wanted a change.

To each his own I guess.
I switched to the PIAA 19169’s to GET RID OF the “yellow” look of the factory bulbs.

If YOU like it, and YOU want to do it, who cares what anyone else thinks?

Within reason

Looks a'ight. Not my cup 'o tea, but hey....it's all about making yours different than everybody else's. Keep 'em. I had blues for awhile but decided a change to all white was necessary.

I'll give you a since nobody else has.

Actually, I got 2 Polarg M5s from Tim and I'm gonna put them once I get my car back. They match the amber conners a lot better then M6. If you are gonna say "clear them", wait. I considered clearing the headlights but decided not to do it because of the problems associate with it.
1. Fog. More than likely, you will get it. I've seen more than enough cleared headlights with fog in them to come to the conclusion.
2. If your HID bulbs go out, you got some explaining to do the dealer (but it's up to them to decide to buy your explaination or not) and I hate doing that. I had one HID bulb went out on me.

I like the way the yellow bulbs look on a black car, but on silver I prefer my Xtreme White PIAAs.

hey i think your lights look pretty cool, but i would have to agree with someone who said the blue and yellow and white doesn't match. it would look ALOT better if you swapped the blue bulb for something clear, to keep it more clean. with all those colors jumping out at you, it's a little too much for the eyes.

looks sweet, I like the yellow and blue contrast, those colors are exact opposites in the spectrum so it balances itself out. can you post the exact kind of bulbs those yellow ones are on the bottom driving lights. how much and where can I get them?

I like the yellow look. Only problem is that the TL-S fogs are naturally pretty white and if you put in Ion Yellows then it just looks dingy. If you changed the lens to yellow then it would be cleaner yellow and it would look nicer IMO.

Color of FOgs

THe color is Ion yellow Piaas, i got them for 20 bucks at the drivers seat, think thats the name of the store next to the new circuit city in boca. I think its a cool look and i have always loved the yellow look in fogs, I had a 89 silver Maxima and i had real yellow Piaa fogs and i Loved them too, so yellow is a fav of mine, plus i love the lexus look so thats why i did it, not to be one, but just to prove the CL-s looks nicer that way too.

yo warren,
it's pretty ugly,
i know you want the lexus look, you know i love it too,
but lexus fogs aren't PEE looking, they are BRIGHT/SHARP YELLOW...
like every else said,
WAY TOO MANY COLORS GOING ON,
but if everyone told you your small FOGS look STUPID AND UGLY and you still kept them on, i'm sure you'll keep these PISS YELLOW FOGS ON TOO,
hahahaha,
btw, when they said clean that ish, they mean the LOOK, NOT THE CAR.
glad to burst your bubble,
tommy
btw, this ----> i think NOT!

OUT OF MY WAY

THe thing i love the most is that the cars in front of me, they move the hell out of my way, cause they are scared of me. THey look at my car, and say, SHIT, this car is bareling up on me and I gots to get the hell out of the way. I LOVE DRIVIN THIS CAR HARD, AND IT RESPONDS TO ME. My personal favorite is drivin from Miami to Deerfield (1 town south of Boca) in less then 1 hour. cause I drive it like over 110 mph straight. hehehehe,
love my lights, scaring people out of my way.

I like the white better than the yellow but you wait; in just a few short years the tide will turn and the yellow will be in and the white will be out. About 5 years.

I personally still like the yellow better, had yellow on my 89 maxima , but whites on my 98, now on my cl-s i had the blue, but a bulb blew, and i said, what the hell, i love the new change.
but on another note, my car is sittin at acura gettin a new tranny seal or something, but since my 2nd tranny, it leaked all the fluid out, so now im pimpin in a 2002 RL with navi, its fun.

Like Soopa said, yellow is better, but it doesn't matter b/c these are just road lamps, putting out about 5 watts, so it won't make a real difference if it's yellow or white....it's just for looks.

Personally, I like them. I think it looks hot... almost Lexus like, which is a sweet color. The contrast between the yellow and blue(ish) is sweet!!
