it looks much better with no fogs, and i think it would look even better with some clear crystal fogs __________________

Looks like your corners are smoked, so id smoke the fogs or go with oem clears. I think the yellow draw too much attention. __________________ 1995 Hellrot Clubsport 318ti -Gone 1996 Schwartz II Sport 357ti - 5.7L V8 LS1/6 1997 Moregrun Metallic 318ti - Gone

I like the yellow fogs a lot, but if you want a change just remove the Lamin-x. Whatever you do, don't take them off your car. | | | | | 09-26-2006, 06:53 PM | #7 | | Moderator Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Bouncing off the rev limiter in CT! Posts: 3,156 |
Keep the fog lights; loose the yellow tint. If you had a yellow car, it might look good. I don't care for the super-rare French yellow fog lights either...
There is a factory clear lens protector that keep them from getting sand-blasted. Highly recommended! | | | | | 09-26-2006, 11:00 PM | #8 | | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 |
Keep them on the car.
I have lamin-x on my fogs but in blue. I'd suggest lamin-x to anyone exspecially if your lenses crack alot from rocks. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active

I would think a light layer of tint to "smoke" them would look good too. | | | | | 10-01-2006, 09:18 PM | #10 | | Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: D.C. Posts: 51 |

I'm keeping mine after thinking about ditching them for sometime(Need a new LH side lamp since mine is cracked) but I take them out for track days, and replace them with filler plates painted trim black. I'll post a pic next time I take the fogs out. | | | | | 02-20-2007, 04:44 PM | #12 | | Member Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Methuen, MA Posts: 72 |
Personally, I'd add more yellow accents to the car to balance the yellow in the lights. If not, I'd go with clear fogs. But I would definitely keep them. | | | | | 02-20-2007, 05:12 PM | #13 | | Member Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: Cincinnati Posts: 41 |
I would do smoked or clear fogs, the yellow ones don't look right | | | | | 02-20-2007, 07:00 PM | #14 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: SOUTH Jersey Posts: 1,085 |
what about getting some brake ducts instead of running blanks? | | | | | 02-20-2007, 07:23 PM | #15 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2006 Location: maritimes Posts: 1,433 |
check ebay out... there are some real nice looking 'smoked' foglights.. the looks sweet and probably would look great on a black car __________________ 11/97 Base  328Ti
