Your low beams look yellow- did you replace them?

I replaced the low beams with Nokya yellow bulbs and parking lights with 5-LED refractors.

All you have to do is:

1. Remove engine bay covers
2. Slide the metal clip thing on the front covers which will then allow you to remove the cover
3. Twist the parking light counter-clockwise and pull out

Just make sure you get your +/- correctly or they will not light up.

I got the parking lights from this link:

just curious, if you want the headlights yellow, why make the parking lights white/blue?

Man oh man, black is the new black.

The past 6 cars of mine have been black on black and I tell ya, I loved detailing it. Then I realized that every spare moment was dedicated to detailing it (not that this isn't a good thing, hehe). Your car looks sweet - nice!

This is the best shot I've seen yet of the new IS rear, this is a nice shot and angle.

Are white fogs bright enough?
