first of all, welcome. post pics of your baby!!

second, dealers frown upon modding. take a look around the site, the search button is helpful. theres a thread about upgrading your foglights to HID. i'll be posting a DIY within a few days.

HID's arent ideal for DRL's or turn signals. they require ballasts and a good amount of voltage to ignite. the best thing is LED's. there are threads about that too. i believe the most popular are v-leds. there is also a DIY for removing the amber insert from your headlights. or you can pay someone to do it. just take a look around, its a good site here, very informative =)

i had my bumper off yesterday to install my HID fogs and i wanted to take off the resonator, but i had no wrench lmfao. i had the 10mm bit and everything, ready to do it, but couldn't find anything to stick the damn bit on. i found it today, so im gonna make a DIY within the next few days showing the entire process. how to take off the bumper, take off the resonator, install HID fogs, or just change the bulb, and how to put the bumper back on.
