I've never been a huge fan of the yellow... But I kinda dig it on your ride... Funny how things just look better on an Infiniti.

Won't have to worry about fog ever again and do you remember how much the front and rear lip cost from Australia?

Nice job! I got yellow fogs as well and love em. Also, not to go off topic, but did you install them mirrors yourself or no? If not how much they run you and did you wire them to your alarm?

Hey kings, looking good as usual! +2 for the diamond graphites

I have question though. I have the PIAA Ion Yellows H3s in my fogs and how do the 3000k HID capsules compare to those. Have you ever used the PIAA H3s? The ones I have are pretty bright and you can definitely tell a difference between stock bulbs and the PIAAs however, a little more brightness wouldn't hurt. Feedback please.

I forgot to ask, what did you do to your clearance lights. The ones beside the fogs. Did you just unplug them or do you have upgraded lights in those too?

nice. Did you have any problems with fitment seeing as how the H3 hid capsule is bigger/longer than a regular H3 bulb?

thanks. i did install them mirrors me-self. they cost me $300usd, got from ebay in taiwan, but you can get them from SYCEFIRO. they're not wired to the alarm, i have to flip them manually, the one's the SY sells are powered, but the wiring is different. so until someone figures out how to wire them up they won't flip.

thanks Lee, your ride looks great with those rims. i had the PIAA before, they were more of a lite gold compared to these capsules. these, when they warm up are extremely deep yellow/gold, like the lexus. these are of course HID's so the brightness is amazing, i can drive at night with only the fogs on. that's how well they light up the road.

i put hyper white bulbs in the clearance section of the lamp. got them off ebay, the color contrast with the yellow fogs and looks really nice.

what's up trini? there were no fitment probs with the bulb, the I35 lamps are pretty deep compared to the Max's. i did have to re-align the beam since the HID bulb puts out more light, and blinding oncoming cars can get you higbeamed, flipped-off, cussed out, or shot.

Ok I am sold now. Damn, i keep buying stuff for the car every week.

How much did the lights set you back and where is a good place to order them from? I am yet to do the foglight rewire because the PIAAs are NOT that bright.

i bought the kit off some "person" on ebay for about $200, it was a 6000K kit. i didn't like the color becuase they were so bluish they made the headlamps look like halogens, the kit itself hasn't let me down so far. the yellow bulbs my girl got them for me from "ebay", again. i just swapped out the 6000K bulb for 3000K bulb.

i know what you're saying about buying stuff for the car, i have so much crap in storage you won't believe it.
