Smile Replaced my Fog Light Bulbs. What do you guys think?

I just replace my OEM fog light bulbs with some yellow xenon bulbs. It seems like everyone tries to match the fog light with the HID, so I decided rather than that, I'd try to make it look more like a fog light. Now you can really see how much more yellow the new bulbs are. It's also a lot brighter with the fogs on than without. I like it. What do you guys think?

nice! I did a similar setup on my firebird because i didn't want to spend another $300 for HIDs for the fog lights.

I bought the bulbs, but never did it. I just didn't want my High Beams to be yellow also.

These are the lights I used. I bought them on Ebay a few months back and just didn't get around to putting them in until yesterday.
I'll post a pic of the front with the fogs on when it gets dark. I tried to take one at like 1pm but there's too much glare from the sunlight and you can't see anything. And the only reason I've got the 17s on there is because the tires on my 18s went nearly bald. I didn't want to spend too much money on tires. I only had to replace 2 tires on my 17s as opposed to 4 on the 18s. I figure I'll put the money I saved towards some new rims. Hopefully before this summer.

I got the same ones. Lovin' them. They look great, and are very functional. Much better than the PIAA Crystal Ions I used in the past, which are a little less yellow and have a slight bluish tint to them also

You dont have to buy the yellow bulbs....I bought the caps that go over the oem bulbs for fogs.

They have different color ones, but I got the yellow ones.

I will post pics when I get home.

They look nice with the 6000K Phillip Ultinions HIDs.

Peace.1.
