Throw some 3000K HIDs in there or at least some yellow bulbs. Lamin-X alone tends to have that **** yellow color to it and not that deep yellow that most want.

Where did you get it, and did you have to cut it to fit, or were they specific for these fogs...?

I guess I'll keep looking. I'm finding $30 is the cheapest online so far, so I'll hold out for something around $10...

Thanks, I needed that perspective so I don't get ripped off...

Damn 30 bucks ? Thats a lil steep for a sheet of that stuff where u from anyways ? Check the laminx website they sell precuts for 15 bucks but thats still a lil too much , try a place that does tints they usually carry that stuff also and im pretty sure theyll hook u up for a few bucks good luck

Putting aside appearance or installing HID's, what would give you the best performance with yellow fog lights.

1. Yellow film with OEM bulb.
2. Yellow film with good yellow bulb. (What type and mfr of bulb)
3. Clear fillm with good yellow bulb.

I want to install a film on the fog lights for protection but want the best vision possible as I live where its quite foggy alot.

Thanks

U can do the 3000k hids but then u wont really need the yellow film , u can do the film and also throw some nokya h11 2500 k bulbs in there for that extra yellow look and ive heard alot of good things about the nokya bulbs in some peoples opinion better then piaa's but to each is own good luck , i personally put
The laminx on to have that daytime yellow look and at nite and im pretty happy with the look at nite i will post some pics soon as i get a chance

Prob would be the best bet just to make sure them bulbs dont burn out your stock harness in some cases i read that the bulbs get hot and melt the connectors !!!
