Are your fogs HID/Xenon or are they halogen? I'd like to see some traditional European ("French Yellow") fogs on it with the ellipsoid headlights. I think contrast looks really good when it comes to lighting.

they're halogen.i do dig the yellow fog light look,and had considered either the 3000k HID(like the foglights on several of the Lexus models),yellow halogen bulbs or maybe convert the glass to yellow.

i just hated the way the full orange corners look so obviously seperate from the headlights-sorta how 92-95 Civics look.i think the smoked corners blend into the headlights,so it makes it look more like a one piece assembly-like on most newer vehicles.
after doing the corners,the orange sidemarkers really stood out,so i swapped them too.

actually,DDM makes them,which is one step below APC price-wise at least.
quality actually seems pretty good,and the headlights,HID,corners and sidemarkers were all $175!if the low beam pattern sucked,i was going to replace the projector lenses with TSX or E46 parts,but i'm pretty happy with the patten.
