Enzo's Brabus-esque quad HID fogs!

Hey folks,

You all may remember my PIAA LED fogs I installed last summer....



Well, they put out next to NO light, are too small and well, I just always loved the way the Brabus Quad fogs looked.

SO, I found some round projector fogs with LED rings, got 2 sets of H3 HID kits from HMS (big ups to ED!!!!) and voila:

Comments?

Oh I also ripped off the window visors you all loved SOOOO much and removed the blacked out Carlsson script from the trunk


ALL OFF:






LIGHT COLOR OUTPUT:



LED's & HID's:






LED's & HID's:



LED's ONLY:

Looks amazing man, as always. Love that youre always changing chit around. What made you decide to rip off the above items anyway?

And I still say to track down that other stubby. Your car is so well modded that that little detail would make a huge difference.

Thanks for the comments/compliments, guys!! I will also be making the opening slightly larger so the exterior fogs show completely but didn't want to cut the urethane bumper without respraying it...it needs it badly too.

The light color output pic is the best representation.....all the light on the ground is from the fogs only...

Fine with me, I was going to put one set on the dad's W220 I've been modding when I come to calgary, so I will have one set left over....$50 plus shipping?

Thanks for the compliments guys!

The only time I've heard the word Habibi was about 20 years ago...

habibi...is a man-sweetheart term: Habibi (حَبيبي) is an Arabic word that literally means my beloved (of a male; the female form is habibati FROM: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habibi

Or any friend who you like ... "in another way" LOL http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=habibi

Mark, you should be paid for all the customization you've inspired over the years. Beautiful, again. But...can't wait to see the lights after cutting.

I was gonna say, the only thing I'm not in love with about it is how the fogs are a bit too big for the bumper.

Oh hush, you. I will get that figured out and add mesh surrounds once I re-spray the bumper!

Oh no, I thought the sparkly stuff on the mirrors was kind of fun!
I meant the dream-catcher, beads and animal parts, hanging from the mirror INSIDE the car LOL

Mark, why'd you decide to ditch the window guards?
