What can you tell us about it? Do you have any close-up pics, particularly one showing the mesh (or ?) behind it? Did you do it yourself or did you buy a kit from somewhere?

They look great
They make a difference in looks unless you'd like to stay stock, guess its all a personal preference?

Lots of good feedback.

I want to do this.

Is a group buy deal possible on the led strip? I really like this one it looks like the 'hockeysticks' on my e coupe.

the 7.5 one is the most expensive right? it was like $149.99? and its really clean good job so basically what you did was mod the original housing for the fogs and install the drl correct?
