2G (99-01)TL USDM bumper JDM fogs = <3 + Work Vs-xx wheels

6000K Headlights
6000k fog lights
6000k license plate light... haha jk they are really CCFL tail lights that go really well with 6000k HID.

Let me know if you have seen this setup before or if not what do you think?

Sorry for the low quality pix, looking to do some kind of photoshoot soon.

I originally started off with cheap yellow nokya bulbs but decided they weren't bright enough since it washed out to white from a distance. I ended up going after 3000K HID's BUT my fog light housing for some reason washed out the yellow and made it white on one side and slightly yellow on the other.



Here are some close ups from way back after i had them installed.





My cameras white balance did make the lights look blue, but 6000K is DIAMOND WHITE and thats what it looks like in person. Also goes well with my CCFL license plate light!

Actually the way it was put in is technically straight, however the way the fog light hole was cut out crooked. I was a bit disappointed because you only get one shot to do it, especially with my setup. You dont really notice it though unless your up close because of the angles so im OK. haha

99-01 right?

no, jdm bumper is shorter, youd have to modify your lip, or find a jdm one.
