Calm down, you asked for an opinion, you won't always get the answer you want.

Personally, I think there's too many in there. Only put them on the functional ones, a la the Raptor DDE ones. Do it up and post pics on your car.

[amilliems6]

lol i was just messin, no hard feelings but i will def post pics when i get it done.

disconnect the secondary drivers lights, best light mod there is. makes a huge difference in presence at night.http://c1.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/13/l_3e401423a002487e86187e9707989c68.jpg if you look you can see that the light reflects a diagonal beam within the headlight cover, making it look like a slanted eye when its completely dark, the secondary drivers light cancels this effect.

I'm more a fan of color matching all the lights if possible. Right now my HIDs and lows aren't exactly the same, so I think I'll upgrade to 6000 or 8000k D2S bulbs in the near future. The running lights are LED right now, and I like the signature they give off at night.

if it was just one big angel/demon eye on each side i wouldnt mind it, but 8 is just slapping a look at me look at me thing on a car that should remain as sleeper as possible, the riciest thing i did was a generator on my roof which IMO looks insanely good on this car and does offer aerodynamic benefit. you cant even see it from 25 feet away.

Is that the chargespeed one?

And yes, I agree. Two rings is about the most I'd put in, and I wouldn't want them to be super bright.

chose plasma ions because i live in the mountains and they offer the best fog/bad weather related vision, white lights, and high beams dont cut through fog or rain in the dark.

I'm thinking of going with the 3000k fogs if I don't color match them to the low beams. Currently they're the Hoen Xenonmatch ones. On my Protege, I ran the Luminics JDM yellow ones and really liked them.

[Super Shredder]

i recomend the PIAA plasma ions if you like the luminics yellow, its more expensive but you get a really rich color in comparo (you cant tell from the cell phone pic) and PIAA reliability and quality.

I'm gonna go HID with whatever I choose, temp/color is my only option. The last set of actual PIAAs I had were problematic and didn't last too long in the Protege, however, I do have the running light LEDs from PIAA and they've held up fine. $25 for two small LEDs is pricey, but they fit just right.

+1 to this. I have the same fogs and really adore them. I used to intentionally NOT turn on my fog lights with the stockers in because I thought they were hideous...now they never turn off :D

[amilliems6]

lol off topic

lol off topic

True, sorry for the thread jack. I am just very happy with them and figured I would add insight where it was due.

[TXspeed6]

Too much lights for me IMO. I like mine..just 2per housing...

That looks really good!

[TXspeed6]

Thanks!
...Those are with my old fogs, I just got 8000k and they match great! But I just installed those angel eyes on a switch under my steering wheel so i can turn them on whenever, and just by themselves...but the inverters went bad recently :( so i have to spend $40 just to get them workin again...

oh and eyelids are on too in those pics.

[amilliems6]

That looks really good!

that is pretty nice.... what temperature is it?

[TXspeed6]

Doesn't really have a temp, they are cold cathode or something. If i were to guess i would say around 6000k-6500k. They are just BARELY blue.

[amilliems6]

I just think this looks nice

This may seem off topic. But why do we have a fake lights in our headlamps? The 3rd one from the outside. I know some 6 models have a fog lights right there. Ours is just made to look like one but serves no purpose.

IIRC the 03-05 6's had fog lights there, when they did the mid-model refresh, they moved them to the bumper and just blanked them out. It was a cost saving measure at the time.

are those the halos from the rmp store?

[TXspeed6]

Ya, worth the money!

[amilliems6]

how long was the install?

[TXspeed6]

I think like 5 hours or so..I can't remember too well, it was a long time ago. But you have to remove the bumper to get the housing out, heat up the housing, glue the rings in, wire, and the do it all in reverse...kinda a pain, but oh well, I like the look of them.

[amilliems6]

sounds PITA
