Finally got mine. I must say, the color yellow...isn't really yellow. Its like a gold. Its really unique and i like it.

 

Pictures is what we need, Karim...

 

y0 dirty where u at? sign on we needa talk!

 

fAsHo mAnG. a1m iS tYte y0.

 

just ordered mine from the website

 

Send me a PM, I won't be on AIM today.

 

Duh, i shoulda known lol. It was cold yesterday and i was glad to get back inside. putting 4th gen fogs back in are a PAIN!!! Taking them out is a breeze.




I know, they are uneven. I can't get the passenger side to aim higher.

 

Pics didn't come out so hot, I'll try for better ones tomorrow.

 

remember, though - with the capsules you can go to autozone and buy some $3.99 sylvania "normal" H3 bulbs if they ever burn out. With the Luminics, if one burns out, you will have to order them and spend $30 or so. That, and we have yet to see how long the Luminics last (the PIAAs and Narvas tend to burn out in under 6 months).

The Luminics look good, no doubt, but it remains to be seen how long they'll last...keep that in mind.

 

are the 4th gen fogs aimable ?

 

Tim,
joel and I are meeting up tomorrow night to take some pics comparing the yellow bulbs he's testing for redlinemax (corey)...why don't you come with us and we'll compare yours with his with my capsules?

call my cell phone

 

Vertical adjustment only.

 

i never knew....... how?

 

Take out your fog housing and there's a little 8mm bolt behind it you can turn. It's sensitive, so make small adjustments and then check the output.

 

ummm hmmmmmmmm, mine came loose after a few twists. ur talkin about the black screw right?

 

Yeah they are. There's a bolt that you rotate. Sometimes I think that damn bolt doesn't do anything at all.

 

Hey Josh, that would be great if you can do a side by side comparison between the different bulbs...Redline vs Capsule vs Luminics

 

looks like we'll be doing it tomorrow night.

 

mine driver side doesnt do anything now. it came so loose, it doesnt aim the light no more !

 

wow this output is very good. i dont think its as good as the capsules though, but we shall see once the comparison comes out.

my narva golds been going strong for almost 10 months. I love them.

 

I've had the Narvas too....they are the "most yellow" bulb I've seen in person (more yellow than the PIAA Crystal Ion). I'll let you know how the others match up...

 

I'd be interested in seeing this comparison, Josh.

 

i still didnt get mine in hopefully tomorrow

 

i'm with you man. but i got it worse. I ordered mine 11/30. They got lost in the mail. When he was going to resend he realized he was out of stock. Told me he sent them tues. If i dont get them tomorrow, he is refunding me.

 

w00t! my capsules came on Saturday! Maybe if it warms up this week I'll get them in.


I also would like to see the side-by-side comparison.

 

a comparison would be very nice to add to this thread...i will be following up soon with some new pictures when my car comes out of the body shop....should be here by thursday...i can't wait!!!

 

just ordered mine from n3985. pm him if you want these for 20 bones.

 

waiting for the pics. As of now only one fog is working.

 

WTF???? STILL NOT HERE!!!

 

MINE EITHER!!!

 

Shameless plug here....







I have about 14 sets left. PM me if interested in less than retail price.

 

fawk, if you still have some next week, i'll buy a pair.

 

we just did the "head-to-head" testing of the yellow bulbs...

and those pics (the ones taken by steven) are not even CLOSE to accurate as to the REAL color. It is a really cool looking pic, but the Luminics bulbs are most definitely a pale yellow, not the deep orange you see here. Of the hundreds of pics we took, a few looked like this one, but those were with a VERY SLOW camera shutter speed on the camera that gave a "false color".....I'm pretty good with the camera tricks and steven, you definitely used a slow shutter speed for these...

so.....Steven, props for some sweet looking pics, but you're gonna have to 'fess up that the lights are not nearly that yellow/orange (not even close) in reality....you don't want people to buy these and be disappointed and pis sed off at you, do you?

The Luminics bulbs are best described as a "gold" bulb (like the Narva/Candlepowers)...NOT a yellow. They look nice in person, but they do not have the "lexus yellow" look.

I know some of you will say "well, Irish, you're biased on this one"...but those who know me know I tell it straight up...and Tim and Joel will back me up in our thread to come.

so here's what they really look like in comparison to the Lexus capsules. A sneak preview of the larger thread we will post in an hour or two:

realistic color:


wrong camera settings/stylized....not realistic..

 

LOL good comparison nevertheless josh...I'm not out to promote luminics or what not...just tryin to give an alternative to the org...and yeah my digital camera was bought in 02...it's not even mine, its actually my mom's...I'm not too familiar on how to use its full features....so yeah I'll see if I can adjust the settings and try to get better quality pictures...if i can't, then my camera definitely is out-dated

Dropped off the car at the body shop this morning...getting it back Thursday...stay tuned ya'll

 

I know man....those pics you took do look awesome, and are good for showing off...just tryin to make sure we're all seeing the same thing, since the yellow fog thing really seems to be getting popular and don't want people getting one color when they thought they were getting another....

"keepin it real, Yo!"

taking lighting photography is always tough....I'm actually very good at lighting shots using "wet film" but still learning the tricks to digital myself (especially since I have a new digital cam with different settings from my old one)...

i think you'll be surprised when our full comparison test is up

 

hey i think you should start a new thread...on the comparison between luminics, capsules, PIAA, redline...just a suggestion since this thread is over 5pages of replies...people might not wanna read it...

waiting for the comparison...

 

Do a comparison with Nokya Hyper Yellows also. See sig.

 

the only way to do a VALID comparison is to have cars with all of those bulbs together at the same time, with the same camera. The comparo we're about to post is the Capsules vs. Luminics vs. RedlineMax Halo Super Yellow, which are the three YELLOWEST I've seen to date (and I've used damn near every yellow bulb at this point, plus the Lamin-x yellow film)

Joel and I have both used the PIAA Crystal Ion and agree they are not as yellow as ANY of those three I just mentioned. I have also used the Narva/Candlepower Gold, which is also less yellow. The Nokyas I have seen in person and they are about the same as the Narvas IMO (nice looking, but more "gold" than "yellow")

Test results will be posted later tonight....


patience, young Jedi.

 

Send me a set of those in H3s for free and I'll add em to the comparison.

 

We should probably use your pictures... mine are just so so.

Agreed but I'll do a comparison between the PIAAs and Halos this weekend.


When Redmax says its a go...
