I have them on my car. I'll take some pics this weekend. They look great, especially if you have HID's.

I have those as well....Ill get some pics up. They are great, and helping now with all the fog that comes in from the ocean and the marine layer too. Plus alot of people think there is a lexus behind them, then I go around and they realise its a benz so its even better.

I don't have the PIAA fog lights, but i do have Yellow bulbs. These are some crappy pictures, but it should give you some idea of what it would look like. I would like to have them a brighter yellow, but this will do for now.

Most Lexus (if not all) are stock yellow.

Cali law is that foglights can be white or yellow in color. According to what I understand, it is even legal to have hyper-white blue lights (as long as when they are turned on, they are matching or close to matching with the headlights). Supposedly, there isn't a vehicle code in California that an officer can site you for regarding "hyper-white" bulbs.

The only thing that would be illegal, in front, would be having any color aside from white/yellow. That would mean distinctive blue lights, red lights, green lights.

As for instlaling HID kit in the coupe, what are you referring to? Headlights, foglights?...Gotta be more specific man. This is too vague for people to give you a better answer.

Hell no, I hate red, it's my least favorite coulour, but Green is my favorite, but I have since went with white LEDs as running lights and Eurostrips.
