They are not painted yellow, they are vinyl overlays. And it is up to your preference.

Thanks for the link....got it figured out! Can't wait to get um in!!!! Now my only problem is matching the color bulbs.......i have 4 chip white leds mounted under the fogs.....i need WHITE bulbs....i'm talkin like whiter than white. Like in the dictionary under 'white' there's a picture of the bulbs...lol. My headlights are smoked with Lamin-x so they always have a that dullish yellow kinda look, but i'll take suggestions on headlight bulbs to help that situation, i would like to match the best i can, and i'm looking for WHITE.

"they are cheaper then OEM cause they are OEM...

^^Most people think the vrd/apt fogs look the best. Plus they use pretty much the exact same wiring harness as the OEM ones so there is no cutting or splicing like some of the other fogs on ebay. I have had them for alittle bit now and love them, they just look good!
