Err scratch that. They don't offer for our cars. Best bet may be to buy a sheet and cut it

I overplayed mine for a while and it's not hard to do. Just make sure u have something to heat it up with to do the bends. Blow dryer worked fine for me. I took them off when I put hids though cause they started melting

[Well incase anybody is looking for some deep yellow fogs i would HIGHLY recommend lamin-x or any yellow film over the fogs I first put 3000k HIDs with the film and it gave the foglights a greenish hue over the light so I put back in my 5000k and the yellow film and its perfect a nice deep yellow I'll upload pics in a little bit

this is with the 3000k and yellow tint
this is with 5000k and yellow tint looks so much better
just a random day shot cant tell but at night its extremely bright

Does it come out as yellow as pictured cuz for now the film works fine and if I want to take it off I can just peel off the film and go back to 5000k lighting

yeah. it lays on really thin, so you just keep adding coats til it's the color you want. the side markers on the fenders of the lancer are the same yellow as the fogs, the fogs are like 5 coats, the side markers are like 50 coats. the only down side is it's permanent.
