HID's
 
I have read alot here about the HID's and I think I am going to order the 6K upgrade for my headlights from HID4U on ebay. I am thinking of going with the 3K yellow HID's for my fog lights. Has anyone here done this? Anyone have the 3K HID's? We don't get fog around here too often but I like the idea of having them if I need them. If anyone has pics of the 3K HID's, can you post them please?

gonna look like a ricer

I hadn't thought about that. I was just thinking that yellow lights cut through fog better than white light. You have given me something to think about. Maybe I should go all 6K.

they werent hard at all. i bout a tail light tint spray called Niteshades. i got it at o'reilly's for like $10. you only need one can. basically you sand down the lights, and spray on the tint. re sand, spray again. then add a clear coat, and polish. there are several write ups on here about how to do them

did you still have enough light from you reverse lights to see enough not to hit anything?

i taped off the reverse lights and kept them clear.
the rest of my lights look completely black during the day. but as soon as you hit the break, you can see them clearly

I have 10K in the Heads and 3K in the fogs. ITS FREAKING SICK!!! The yellow is insane. And the blue is stupid blue.
