I picked up my VRD's during their sale for like $170ish. The install was easy but I did put the front of my car up on ramps; made things easier for me (I didn't want to take off the bumper). The fogs are bright and they look like they belong in the vents. They also feel very sturdy. If the sale is still going on I'd jump on it.

damn. I ordered mine the 25th. Processed the next morning. Shipping is taking forever. Shipped on the 26th. Expected Delivery = Jan 3rd. 8 freakin days. I had HIDs shipped from Arizona to me during the holidays in 3 days via USPS. This is the longest UPS has ever taken to ship for me.

mine says the package is 3 lbs. Sounds pretty light to me but then again, when I bought some tires, UPS said that they weight 30lbs together

Just got my fogs in last night and installed them today. Took 2 weeks for them to get here. I put in the xenon bulbs that came with em so they match my 5000K HID's. There not heavy at all but there well made and look real clean. I'll try and take some pics and post em up.

I was gonna do that too, but then I thought about doing the black mesh with the trd emblem. Finally, I think I have settled on the titanium grill with the trd badge...

I have seen some pics where they look silverish, but i dunno. Since they are the same price, I think I am gonna go with the titanium grills as soon as I get my other xmas toys paid off...
