what do you guys think?
i hit a raccoon a year ago and it broke my fog light.. i couldnt figure out what to do. dealerships want 106$ for a new one.. efff that.
then got some from a buddy not made for the car and couldnt get them to adjust right. so i removed those and figured with the CAI the fog light would block some air flow. so i just left the fog lights out.
i went to autozone got some strips of LED's and put em in its place. kinda like the porche daytime running lights. let me know what you guys think!

I like it! I think I'm going to do something similar since my lights ate burned out. I may put them in circles surrounding the fogs to look some what like the halo lights. I like what you did still, looks cool in my opinion! Good work!

thanks man!
also for your idea.. make sure you get the small flexible ones from autozone or where ever you get it.  the ones i have are thicker... and alot less flexible. but i got mine cause no need to bend.
i would like to see it though, its a tight idea.
