(Putting them on the fangs was my idea. I like it because they match the lines of the headlight assemblies and look very integrated.)
This looks much better flows with the front more puting them on the fangs..I have drl on my v3 nismo front bumper..will post pics later.

Not a fan of the vertical look... but this actually looks pretty cool.

Thumbs up DRLs & Fog Lights

I had a hard time finding a fog light that would fill the outer fang area, when I came across a set on E-bay the projector type units used blue covex glass, but lacked a reflector in the housing. I tryed using a LED but it wouldn't produce enough light, so while they appear OEM the element remains incadesent & appears somewhat primative when turned on. I like what gy954 & sunkist have done utilizing the inner fang with a angled vertical look. I still don't know why I didn't see this but will be working towards set for my car. Good job guys

Is there anyway to have it all on at once with the HIDs?
