Hyper yellow, because that's the only thing that makes sense in fogs out of these choices.

my only concern about the white is that the white from the fog will be slightly different than the white of my headlights. its a small difference but it bothers me.

so i was putting the finishing touches on my suspension set up, and my car wouldnt start. The car is still getting power and everything works, so the battery isnt the issue. The car wont start though i feel like its the starter. Anyone have any ideas?

Actually feeling the Evo X wheels.

a few 15mm spacers would get that thing looking just right.

Love the build! (Got the same color)
