If you have self leveling equipped on your car, the new brackets will allow them to continue to work properly. The light output is great, but there are some other retrofits that are better. I'm running an HID kit, which helps!

No, the fogs are OEM yellow with an HID kit (yellow 3000k)! The look is from the camera shot in the photo!

Thank you! I was thinking of doing the same but couldn't picture how it would look. I will get this done when I paint my lip in the next week or two...

get the Q45 bracket from Luxury Mods and you retain all functions. (ONLY if you're using real Q45 projectors, not the ebay knockoffs)
