New HID Fogs Installed.

My parts finally arrived, I got a set of new direct replacement aftermarket fog lamp housings that have yellow lenses & a pair of 3000K HID Bulbs. They look great, Pictures just don't show the colors as you see them in person. Don't mind the dirty car, just drove 564 miles.

Bulbs

Lenses

It would but the fact that there is a huge rust spot on the hood begs to differ.

I like how deep the yellow looks when lit, but I dont like the yellow lens with the fog lights turned off. I recently picked up a set of 3000K fogs and installed them in stock fog light lens and theyre just not as yellow as I would like. I believe the Lexus yellow caps are the only way to get both deep yellow and a clear lens at the same time.
