They look nice. You know what would make them look nicer? If the oem fogs were the same color. But thats just my opinion. GJ.

Yeah that's one thing I was considering, I just can't make up my mind on whether to go hids or those new cree leds for the fogs to get them the same color

I agree with Pig Pit, if the fogs were around the same color as your headlights and LED's, it would look a little neater. Or, go with a brighter yellow, the fogs look dim in comparison.

I don't think it is rice though, the install is clean and the lights are positioned nicely.

Thanks! And yeah I just have the stock fog bulbs and the yellow film over the lens for now, I'll probably get hids for the fogs and take the yellow film off

I like it! That was going to be my second choice if mounting them vertically didn't work out. Where did you get your leds?? Also where did you get the hond bra visor thing??

I got mine off Ebay. Maybe $10-15. I bought two sets the last time as my first quit. They need a lot of water proofing. I sealed up the space where the wires come out with GOOP and then wrapped the seam in black electrical tape. They survived last winter just great. I am just mounted using doublesided tape as couldnot get a screw driver inthere to mount the bracket. Advantage is the lights stay straight.

I do like your vertical mount. Looks like a lot of other cars.

I need to repaint my lip as the black got a lot of chips over winter and scraped a corner again. I just finished re-painting the rear diffuser.
