i used lamin-x by the way, and it was dead easy to do!! (i have enough for another set if anyone wants it..)

anyway:

no lights on


sides:


driving lights:


full beam:


oh and this shows off the halfords super brilliance lights too, i am well impressed with them over standard still!!

And one of the back debadged and smoked reverse section just for the fun of it. excuse the dirty car, new pics will be done soon after i break out my new DA polisher!!

May be able to pull it off in the night. You should of just got replacement fog bulbs mate. Looks a bit weird IMO. Did you replace the high beams as well or just the dipped and side?

All the minicabs round my way have yellow fogs so you can spot them when it's dark and you're pissed. If northerners start trying to flag you down, you know why.

I'm not so sure bout yellow, if anything I would go the other way toward white/blue (xenon HID look), but my car has xenons. Your blacklines and M3 spoiler look great though

How easy is it to change the fogs? I should know having just had the front bumper off, but don't want to go through that pain again!

Not sure about it but as you I'm sure you won't be one of those tedious people who drive around with fogs on when it's not foggy, nobody will notice I guess.

I don't think I've ever used front fog lights, do they actually do anything?

You got too much time on your hands......

On a serious note, yellow fogs are better in fog.

PS I like your back light mod

Yes they block perfectly good cooling ducts for the brakes.
