im not sure if you have HID fogs or not, but i was just wondering. Can you just get the HID bulbs, and swap them? or do you have the change the whole wiring and stuff as well. Same goes for the regular headlight, does the wires have to be changed as well?

If you want to make your fogs into HIDs, then you will have to buy a complete HID kit with ballast, bulb, wiring and all and should be kind of a plug and play type of install. For the low beams, I dont really know what you mean since they're already HID's but if you want to do a different bulb(different color/output) then you have to get the same size bulb with a different kelvin and swap.

Let me be the first then - the car turned out very nice! Quick question since I'd really like to swap out the rear marker lenses for the TL-S versions. Did you DIY or did you have the same guy who did the spoiler take care of it? If you did it yourself, did you follow a DIY from the forum and how difficult did you find the job? Any pitfalls? (Doesn't look to difficult, just looking for any sources of advice, etc.)

Did it myself - took about 10 minutes; I popped off 1 interior clip in the trunk liner [by the opening], then unscrewed the hook for the cargo net; pulled the liner down, stuck my hand in there and pushed the two tabs on both sides of the existing marker, popped right out - disconnected the connector, got a damp soft cloth and cleaned all of the junk that was around it and put the new one in

FYI - for me, the right side was a bit more difficult, the TL-S marker has a wider connector, so it ends up going in at a slight angle but hooks in ok; just felt weird pushing it in like that..

I'm seriously thinking the Type-S tails now; the side markers (smoked) looked good, but now there is no tie to the tail lights, the TL-S tails would most certainly resolve that issue

Also I still REALLY want the A-Spec body kit..
