volt hid fog kit + xtreme d1s bulbs installed

Just finished installing my volt 6000k hid kit for my fogs, and swapped my stock D1S bulbs to xtreme 6000k bulbs both bought from xenondepot! Looks awesome, really pure white (although I was hoping for a SLIGHT more blue tint, however I will see how it looks at night). And best of all, no ERROR!









The images pretty much capture the true colour which I personally saw in the garage in the afternoon. Therefore it may look different at night outside.

Charge it to your parents' credit cards and don't say a word. If they find out, run for it!

If you have a part time job...i think it wont be hard as parent pay for insurance, gas and all shit... What you earn is your own money... no need to pay for any thing else except what you want to spend on...

n-motion , 110 straight up for both fog and d1s installation. I checked out quotes from 2-3 other shops, all tried to rape me.

ya I go to sfu ... park at west mall level 7000 and you'll find me

btw, some bad news for e92 owners. I noticed my DRL angel eyes were EVEN dimmer than before WITHOUT even having my fogs or headlights on. I dont know why it's doing this but its obvious the fog hid is causing this. However with fogs/lowbeams on the DRL angel eyes look the same brightness as before for the gp thunders (read: quite dim). Oh well, guess Ill just turn on my fog/lowbeams all the time instead haha

That's quite awkward indeed. I would have thought that the angels would be dimmer if your fog/lowbeams were on. I guess that's what you get for having high-powered fogs though.

By the way, UBC > SFU

let me explain again what i mean.

Before when I had gp thunders installed, during the daytime when only DRL's are on, they are quite bright (just slightly dimmer than stock but awesome white colour). Then when I turn on lowbeams, the gp thunders dim down (happens with stock angel eyes as well).

Now after I installed the d1s and hid fog, gp thunders are dimmer than before i installed the kits even when I dont have lowbeams on. However after I turn on lowbeams, they are the same brightness as before I installed the hid fog and had lowbeams on.
