Fair enough. Which light panel did you decide to go with since I see 3 different ones in your pics.

They were all the same brand (or at least from the same retailer/ebayer - I can't remember where I got them a long time ago). The ones in the pictures are 12, 24, and 48 LED. I ended up just going with the biggest one. You know how we Texans think big

Fixed.

Hmm. eBay is spotty with things like this, but that's good you got them all from the same place.

Some maybe... not all

All of them were previously installed and worked for several years

I have had good luck even with the cheap LEDs on ebay. Even the problems I've had are fixable with a little ingenuity.

I'm with you on that. One mod causes another problem, you fix that but it brings up another problem, and so on, and so on...

IT NEVER ENDS!!

I really like this part. It's just a solid glow.

Solid glow FTW. Honestly, one of the reasons I don't like the EVO-R fog light is because it looks like the individual LEDs are so obvious. Is that really the case?

IKR!! Luckily, I've found spray paint, which is very accountant/wife-friendly and can satisfy that recurring desire for moar mods. I'm just trying not to go overboard - if I'm not careful, everything on the car inside and outside might wind up KAD

I will take some pictures tonight for you with mine on. I have the EVO-R Smoked lens since I thought it looked better than the Red on a black Z. Plus, when it's not on, it blends in with the body so you forget its there.

What about Plasti-Dip?
