Adrian, I'm not sure what to think of those covers. If someone had say, a camo xB, I think it would look good. I'm not sure what to think.
BTW, nice integration of the fogs in your front lip. Gary's work?

1. I'm a tC owner, I know.
2. I don't "hate on" the xB. I think they're pretty effin' cool-looking
3. I don't particularly like this product. I don't think it looks clean. It looks too much like it was just "stuck on" instead of being well integrated.
4. In response to everyone praising his front lip foglights.... the driver-side foglight isn't mounted right. It's crooked. Now, to reduce the number of flames I get: No, my car has no mods. No, I could not do a better job myself. Yes, I do still feel it's okay for me to point that out. No, I don't think I'm an _______ for pointing it out.

I like it.
I like the idea of a clear one as well.
Something nobody else has said,it must be easily removable!Just in case!
But must also not be able to blow off cruisin down the road!

Even before the XB came out, the BBX concept was sporting light overlays.
It just looks better to me!!
I have been waiting for a company to come out with something like this for a long time
Please more info

RE: Legality
I hate to be a jerk and all, but seeing as how someone asked about the legality of these thought I'd post. Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 108 States:
For more information on FMVSS #108 Checkout http://fmvss108.tripod.com/ and of course http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/
S7.8.5 When activated in a steady-burning state, headlamps shall
not have any styling ornament or other feature, such as a translucent
cover or grill, in front of the lens. Headlamp wipers may be used in
front of the lens provided that the headlamp system is designed to
conform with all applicable photometric requirements with the wiper
stopped in any position in front of the lens. When a headlamp system is
installed on a motor vehicle, it shall be aimable with at least one of
the following: An externally applied aiming device, as specified in
S7.8.5.1; an on-vehicle headlamp aiming device installed by the vehicle
or lamp manufacturer, as specified in S7.8.5.2; or by visual/optical
means, as specified in S7.8.5.3.
