Tatanko, how come your fog projectors concave up? I am planning on using Bosch minis for my fogs, any tips on a fog retrofit?

They do that because of the glass on the fog light housing. I can't remember the term for it, but the lines that are etched into the glass (which normally help spread the light from the stock reflector) are what cause the normally flat beam pattern to curve like that. The only solution was to MAKE a whole new lense out of glass or something, and I didn't have the patience or skill to do that.

My fog retrofit was pretty simple, really. A few snips here and there and you've got all kinds of room to mount the projector. On your I35, though, it's a good thing you're going with a smaller projector, because it looks like you're going to be a bit cramped. Your lenses are clear, though, so you won't have the cutoff problem I ran into.

here is my addition to the projector kroo. I had to fabricate my own cutoff shield with these. I had to keep everything else looking stock due to past attempts at stealing my car in my neighborhood.

yup, that is due to having to fabricate my own cutoff shields for the projectors. left it as a straight cutoff, wasn't going to mess with fabricating a step into the shields
