Yellow Capsule Retro
Today I had the day off so I decided to perform a yellow capsule retro. This was my first stab at fogs and I warn you they are hard as hell to get apart. The glue actually gets dry and foamy not the same stuff used on the headlights which gets sticky and mollases like. After 3 hours of patient and tedious prying I finally got them apart. I didnt want to drill holes in the reflectors so i used JBWeld to hold them in place. I know these are crappy cell phone pics but I'll take some night shots with my Dimage Z1 tonight. There is no glare as seen in these pics cause like I said cell phone cams suck. I let my cousin borrow it on her vacation to take good pics she'll be home tonight.

On the cell phone pics my fogs were aimed too high after retrofitting so I reaimed them to a more uniform line. Cousin didnt get home til late by then I was already sleeping I got up this morning and took these. Car hasnt been washed since thanksgiving lol Been raining alot here lately so I havent bothered.
