SDSC3,
No problem, thats what great about this forum, lots of ideas and information.
Also the clear lens on the maxima is much thicker than the plastic we got since it is an actual automotive lens. Let me know if you want the part number I think I still have it at work somewhere.

SDSC3,
I dont have a pic from the Maxima lens but the part number is 26136-85E-00. Since thicker clear automotive plastic is really what were looking for you are not restricted to the maxima lens, now that I have actually been looking around lots of cars seem to have clear lens pieces big enough for us to cut out the pieces we need from it.
SC300TURBO,
For my now foglight what used to be cornering lights I am using the hyperwhite 1156 bulbs and I am also using hperwhite 9006(I think) for the head lights and I also have hyperwhites in the side markers but I cant recall the bulb number. I got them all online, I think all six bulbs came to about $60. As far as getting the orange lens of, one of mine was already cracked so I proceeded to break that one off but the other one did come of slowly using a heat gun.

Ikon,
Im pretty happy with ones I already made for now and the overall look is pretty good. Plus its way to cold up here right now to spend that much time in the garage getting the damn things off the car again. I think once it warms up my next project is gonna be an exhuast.

Yes yours look tight, but I know the light on the Maxima you are referring too and it may look tight as well...
Today it was 80 degrees down here in the south...
