>>However if "Murphys Law" bites you and you screw up the installation. I'll repalce your stickers free. <<

Too funny...At least you can get "repalcements".

What next, fake window tint?

you know, I usually get a big laugh out of this kind of stuff , but I kind of like this sticker thing. I don't like the look of the front of my xb w/o fog lights, and I don't have the money or interest in getting fogs.

I may actually buy those stickers. I just need someone else to buy them and post a review and better pics.

(I'm completely serious)

i agree with those looking to purchase them! as stupid as i would feel, i dont see paying over $200 for getting the same amount of lighting effect as straping a mag-lite on the front on my car! :D so what they may be a little cheesy and fake, but oh well. i might go with fog light screens to help my intake, but it gives me something to consider. for seriously like $5 i dont see a problem with it. go ahead for those who want to flame them, theyre cheap and no harm done if you dont like them!

DANGIT!!! I was going to say that!

I didn't buy them so it would look like I had foglights during the day, I like the look at night. I love the way the sit out wider than the lights, I just wish they were finished inside and would light up like every other foglight known to man.

They aren't finished on the inside like most (all) foglights. Instead of a shiny surface, they are just a dull potmetal just like the outside of the housings. It gives a half-lit look to it instead of a shining light. Just look at Scion's own pic of them:

Go to that page and click on the Fog Lights in Exterior Accesories...
