Modding has begun
Hey guys,
Just thought I should start a new thread for the mods on my G so far.
last weekend I got the HID fog lights put in and yesterday I picked up my non sports lip and installed it (only took 20 mins ) it looks awesome and I am very happy with it below are the before and afters. Also I will be tinting it tomorrow so I will toss some more pics up when I get a chance.

That's not cool man, well I have no problem helping. In order to get the fog lights HID you will have to buy the whole kit with bulbs included and either put them on yourself or have a shop do it. I did not have much time so I took it to a shop, 200 for kit and installation. Hope this helps feel free to ask anything you like and I can do my best to answer it for you good luck

Awesome thank you so much! ive been reading around and from what ive learned i need a bi-xenon kit? for my fogs, and highs? And also i kinda wanna do 6000k because they have a little blue in them but not alot. Could i change my stock low beam HID to a 6000k bulb without a kit for it to, and get a bi-xenon 6000k kit for fogs and lows? Im not to familiar with HID but i am learning. Does that sound right? i dont want to have different colored lights

A "bi-xenon" HID projector has a low beam and a high beam in the same housing. When you turn on your high beam or flick the stalk, a solenoid in the HID housing moves a metal shield up/down, thereby removing what you see as the nice HID cut off line and allowing light to shine fully out the projector.
The HID bulb itself is just a regular bulb, the projector takes care of all the work

Here is a bixenon projector, see the solenoid assembly on the bottom of the housing? That's what moves the shield to differentiate between your "high" and "low" beam:
Your fog light is essentially a "low" beam (or a "high" beam, either way), so you're simply buying an aftermarket kit that includes a generic HID bulb, wiring harness, and ballasts. That's it, nothing "moves" and there is no low/high for the fog light.
