I used the Catz bulbs for the high beams and driving lights, they aren't perfect, but they're a lot closer to the HID low beams than the yellowish stock ones. I get all my stuff from some friends at a local shop called The Driver's Seat. Figure about $75.00 per pair, though I paid a little less than that.

Rims & Tires: 18x7.5 Konig Toxxins with blue center rings(Does it matter what color the centers are?), Yokohama Parada 225/40ZR-18 ASY(Parada's are all asymmetrical) BSW(Paradas are only available with a black sidewall, thank god).

Don't get your panties in a wad man, just making some suggestions. If you want to tell us that your tires are z-rated, asymmetrical, and have a black sidewall, if sh!t like that matters to you, then by all means, leave it in, I was just making a suggestion and I tried to be as PC about it as possible, I'm not out to piss in your wheaties man. Enjoy the site and take the occasional rag or flame with a smile, no one means harm, but we gotta have a little personality.

he he... it's funny how all of the newbies lately have such a short fuse and go off so easily....

Anyway, I used the CATZ Galaxy Whites in my fogs (not sure if these are the same ones jbrown used). They did seem to match the best, even better then the PIAAs (I did a side by side test), and they were cheaper then the PIAAs too (around $55 online, didn't see them on here at the time). In the highbeams I used the PIAAs b/c I had them from my CL, so no use in buying bulbs unnecessarily.......

Does it matter that only the PIAA's 9006's are street legal? If we use them as fogs, does it still apply? (Note: some b%$#@ pulled me over once cuz my old Ion Yellow fogs were "distracting.")

Has anyone found Yellow/Amber 9006/HB4's??? I've looked at Catz, PIAA, Eurolites, Hiper(sic?) with no luck.
