Default Spec-D LED Foglights with Daytime Running LED Strip

What's up guys, I just thought I'd share this with you all. Kind of new to the whole forum thing so I'm not really sure how things work yet but am really enjoying being able to see what other people has done so I figured I'll give it a shot. I can do a DIY if anyone is interested. I won't take it apart but can go through the step by step procedure, with pictures of course. I used my parking lights as an electric source for the LED strip.

LED Strip ON

Welcome, engine bay looks clean & fogs don't look bad either, I'm sure a majority of us like myself would like to see night shots of those fogs..

I'm actually thinking of painting the grill black next week! I'm unsure about the "chrome" though.. I just might leave the outer rim chrome with the Logo... We'll see how paint happy I get. :-D

All that's in there is an LED bulb so I don't see why not. I had to wire the LED Strip separately so I'm sure HID's would actually work. Got it at a pretty good deal too. $140 with shipping and everything. Only took 5 days to get here.

Sorry bro but I was actually thinking of keeping it just in case I wanted to switch it out for whatever reason in the future. But if you're looking for replacement fog lights for cheap.. these fog lights cost almost just as much as an one OEM fog light housing.
