yes they are super yellow. the hid's dont do it alone. the yellow overlay gives it that deep yellow color. they are AVS visors. the fitment is decent. im satisfied with them overall

front 245/35/20, rear 275/30/20. fenders rolled n shaved. still rubs on dips with the wheels turns especially with tanabe d series and over sized 1 inch on the front. should be ok after i get some stretched tires.

removed the yellow fog light overlays today and sprayed some Vans yellow lens paint. came out really good. its all in the prep

I think you are the first to spray the lights. Looks good.
