Default Fog lights

I'm looking for some yellow fogs that will fit in the two front bumper vent thingys (Not the main front vent!). Does anyone have any links to websites with more info/trustworthy cheap sites or maybe a correct term I should use to search? Or maybe know someone who wants to sell? Thanks!

here's what u should do....go on Ebay, and find a seller named Apt. Auto. they have the VRD foglights for 80+shipping, for a total of 110. then get some yellow overlays from www.bluebatmobile.net.

If I got blue overlays would it be a pull over magnet? Also wheres a good place/brand for blueish headlights? I dont want them to be pull me over blue but I hate the white/yellow color for stock bulbs, what would be great would be a ultrawhite with a slight blue tint. Thanks for the help so far, I'll definetly be picking those fogs up in the next few days.

The fogs on that link are from a guy who once worked for VRD and he makes the fog lights, they are EXACTLY like the VRD foglights for a fraction of the price.
and Daywalker, the overlays would be a vinyl stick on. if u want blueish headlights, try a local Autozone or something like that, the Silvania Silverstars are really nice lights.

^^^ Sylvania SilverStars FTW !

Before you get the SilverStars, you might want to look for the 9006-9005 conversion for your lowbeams on this forum. You'll be glad you did it.

You COULD get it on VRD for $166 shipped... Or you could get it on Ebay $90 shipped. There was a thread on this, and they are practically similar. I order the $90 from Ebay, it was shipped from China, and surprisingly it only took 4 days to get here. An extremely easy install. I'm glad I got the Ebay ones because with an extra $76, I could get gas and fog overlays. Its your choice in the end, but I would advise going the $90 route.

Hope this settles it for you. If anything, you could get it and call em VRD, there is no way anyone can tell.

Bought some 9005's and modded them to fit the car and they look great! Now I have two extra headlights and I was wondering if there is some special blue coating I can buy to make them have a blue hue? If it looks good and everything I would put the coating on the 9005's and use them all the time! Thanks for any help!
