Gave her some love this weekend, drove here to work today too...I still love my girl...

So, one bulb went out on my HID fogs...tried a set of bulbs I had...too blue compared to CBI...ordered the "same" bulbs from ebay seller...came in, didn't fit right, were way more blue...and dim. Fk that...returned them. Opted to try the MEKO approach...did Amber led fogs and man o man...it looks great! I didn't really care about the output since the CBI do the job of lighting and sometimes the bluish glare from the fogs ruined the perfect cutoff from the ZKW and quality low beam bulb. Plus, as most know...the car didn't come with bumper fogs so the lighting isn't really necessary.

Anyway...

Actually, I have another set of the black gorilla wheel locks I have on the S2000 to put on. I don't mind the silver, but they look like factory lug nuts from a distance, I loved how the black ones looked and how big the wheels looked with them.

Funny but that side shot is BS...I was on a root and it tucked front and raised rear. I'm not really that raked!

Looking good Jeremy. I was saying the same thing, might as well use led for the look instead of messing up the cut off line of the CBIs

I like your S2k but this TL is just awesome

I had considered it...but your look definitely is what gave me the push to finally try it.

As my mother used to say to my sister and I...I love you equally, but differently.

LOL...thanks for the suggestion. But I had that look many moons ago and ended up getting bored of it. Plus, it's very hard to match all 4 bulbs (looks like you're missing the oem fog bulb) and eventually I was a lot happier going back to amber with the high quality color of the CBI white bulb.

Lookin good though, man...keep it up!
