Default LED Foglights?

Opinions? Not sure if I want to do this. It would replace the existing fogs.

looks unique, but i think it would perform more like LED strip or DRL..

I would actually rock it if the match to the headlights was a bit closer... where did you find them and are they designed for a 3GS or is that just a Kragen version? If the latter, forget it - LOL. IF it's designed for the 3GS, I can see that being pretty cool.

I agree that it looks out of place. If the JDM is too expensive, just HID the stock fogs. Right now, Audi owns the LEDs and it's stock.

$1,500 a couple of years ago maybe...if you want jdm fogs now, it'll cost you $1,989 + shipping from l-tuned!!! i bet that price is a bit higher now!
