idk about other people, but my (2002) glass lens fog-lights cracked from rocks pretty quickly. so a couple days ago i replaced my fog-lights with new ones, and ordered protective fog-light film. I searched online and found a company called RVinyl.com and scoped the products out. I ordered yellow foglight film, and decided to TRY their pre-cut window tint film. I was pretty skeptical as i have ordered pre-cut film before from a different site and was very disappointed. it was thick, hard to work with, and i ended up scrapping it.

all in all, i must say: the foglight film was cut very well. fit perfectly, and the window tint was so easy to work with, and went on without a problem. (i while pealing it off creased a 2 spots, but otherwise its done very well)

my old foglights that were cracked:




after products were installed:



tinted window's:



all in all, RVINYL delivered it very well packaged, ontime, and i am very satisfied with their products. im by no means a pro tint installer, but i must say it turned out bubble free.

 

day time pics of tinted foglights?

 

 

Are your parking lights working? They don't look like they are on.

 

yea they are on. they are a cool blue bulb color. Its tough to see when the flash hits it, or its day light... but at night it matches the HID headlights really well- and is rather bright.

 

are you also running 3000K hid fogs?

 

nope stock 55watt halogen bulbs.

 

Looks good! 35% tint? Thinking of trying it myself but hate to mess it up. Perhaps I'll just take it to a pro...

 

its ok, the work seems good, but w/ the car...too much color wise going on..and on that 7th gen i hope those wheels and front end are plastidipped

 

you guessed it! everything on both cars is plastidipped, except my calipers.

idk what you mean by to much color wise is going on. my car is gray, accents are black- and calipers are like a brembo gold.

 

35W 3000K HIDs would look great in those fogs! They look nice for now though. Next things to do to the car should be a drop and wheel repaint.

 

the tint is 20% again im by no means a tint installer, but i did it pretty well.
all in all, i tinted 3 cars in my life. the first was a mess, the 2nd was better, and this one is boarderline pro install.

 

Cool option, I wouldn't do it, but I like it

 

my wheels were great... but last week i put on new front tires, and the machine scratched the paint.
between my track bike, wifey's track bike, and 2 jobs... its tough to squeeze in the rim repaint.

-and 5mins ago... wifey texted me SHE HAD TO GO TO THE MALL TO BUY NEW SHOES.... comes out and some A-hole scratched up her passenger door to the 2010 G37s - so thats now on my to-do-list. FML

 

Looks good, nice work.

Oh and nice to see a local org member

Let me know if you ever need any help

 

how much do you charge for suspension work? (i need all new struts & shocks).

 

sending you PM

 

and the foglight lenses are yellow...too me, theres alot of clashing going on in on your 5.5....BUT!!!!!!! its your car and nevermind what i dont like about it, its your car.

oh and good to see the 7th gen 19s are plastidipped

 

Question. Anybody have issues with the glass 5.5 foglights with HIDs and overlays?

I almost never drive without my foglight rewire on (standard 55w bulbs) and was even considering maybe buying some HIDs. But my foglights are already cracked and i worry that if i buy new housings and put HIDs in them, the heat will make them crack or the overlays burn up. I dont do very much highway driving so if rocks are the issue its not my main concern here.

 

Looks good i like it!!

 

Looks good. Be careful with the tint for Jersey police are tint *****.

 

looks good i did my fogs in smoke from same co.

 

I haven't had any problems thus far with my hid fogs with lamin-x overlays - it's been about 5 months. Just make sure you get a 35W kit, not 55W.

OP, I like the setup, but I'm a little bias since I'm also running yellow overlays. Your next step should be to clear the headlights.

 

You mean a clear film over the headlight, or clear coating them??

U don't have to get HID'S to have 3000k bulbs. I got eBay yellow film and eBay h3 2500k jdm fogs and it looks perfect, but my car is gray lustre

 

Fogs look good, so do the windows. How was the rear window ? that one always kills me and I give up lol .
Also I like that black part in the middle of your front bumper.
But something about the wheels doesn't look great, not sure if its the color or the style.

 

Judging from the pics, I don't think the rear window is tinted.

 

True, I had 2500K yellow halogen bulbs in my fogs, without yellow overlay, and they did look yellow... but HID is so much brighter. See the comparison...

 

yea i ran out of day light on the rear most window. that will be done saturday. i will post updated pics. ODDS ARE I WILL MESS IT UP. thats a tough one.
im gonna heat gun it on the exterior first, and gently press it against the outside, to make it form well, then will apply it inside.

 

5.5 fogs glare SO BAD with HIDS.... BOOO


Pleasedon'tputHIDsin5.5fogs

 

It's been a year and a half since I installed my HID fogs, and i NEVER had anyone flash their lights at me because I was blinding them...

The fogs on the picture show much more glare than in reality. In reality, there is actually no glare at all. The fogs light up the ground about 30ft in front of the car...

 

i raised my headlight reflectors via the adjustment screws a tiny bit, just to see a little further down the road, and now i get flashed at constantly LOL
