Looks great! It'd be cool if you could find a smooth shroud for around the projector.
The Waterproof Blazer fogs were made for the elements I personally wouldn't worry too much about rock chips, etc. Should be more sturdy than other fogs that were meant to be covered in plastic. The type of shroud I'm talking about hypothetically would be something like this, painted black:

As.. Charlie Sheen would say... "Winning"

They overpower my TSX retros!






The extra light in the middle is from my TSX not from the fogs.. My TSX are not aligned correctly.

I see so much more on the road now.. I wonder how 3k fogs would be too much yellow now..

One Fog ON..

Not sure if these will fit, but just for example.
Ill look into shrouds this week

Could this be done to the Intrepid fog lights so one could have a clear lens cover?

Im sure they can, but I think they look better without the Lens in front. The projectors are small enuff to fit into alot of setups. Im very happy with their light output.

I think whats killing my TSX light output is the Lens.. even with a clear Lens its at a bad angle that just disfuses the light.

nice job, but imo it would look 10x's cleaner with the fog lens re-installed.

Leaving it all open like that makes it look 'half done'.

I think a 'Nicely fitting' shroud will solve any cleanliness issues- Esp. if it's a fiberglass or cf molded shroud depending on how far Elite wants to take it
