Thumbs up

Call me weird or old-skool, but I like yellow fogs. My 250 has the big block-type and I wish our new GS had yellow fogs. I guess yellow fogs only come with the HID option.

I think they changed all that starting with the 2001 models...No non-HID GS3 I've seen has yellow fogs.

My GS4 has yellows, and I like them; unmistakeable while when seeing other GSs on the road, but I'm gonna give the clears a chance with some close-to-HID-color matching bulbs, just so I can see for myself. Pics of course forthcomming in a few weeks.

I remember when buying my GS, the dealership told me that you can tell the difference between a 400 and a 300 by looking at the fog lights, the yellow fogs are 400...

Is this true, or was it just a sales pitch. No matter I only looked at the 400...

Aloha

if you have HID then your car has yellow fog lights if not then you have clear fog lights. You should still be able to get a spoiler for GS3 or GS4 also.. i dunno what ur salesman was talking about!?!?!

I like all my lights too look HID in the front..

Your '02 GS3 is the Sport Design version, right? It doesn't look like it has HID. Does it? If not, then they must just put yellow fogs on special edition GS3's that don't have HID. Otherwise, I think they only way to get yellow fogs on a GS3 is to get HID.

In the US, you can not get the factory spoiler on the GS3. It has to be dealer installed or some other aftermarket source.
