thanks, you got a pic with all your HIDs on???

Scott2 what size tires are those and how much is your car lowered? I need new DRs for my 15s and don't know if I should get 275/50/15s again

So as you probably know, headlights don't photograph well. Especially with a phone camera lol. But anyways, here's the pictures. Its hard to tell the difference but its there. The headlights are stock OEM HIDs and the fog lights are LEDs.

I Dont think it looks bad but they're not matching. Trying to decide if smoking them out will bring the led brightness, color down.

I'm sure it would bring the brightness down, just not sure wether it will like you want it to. Get some GTO brand smoked covers? Or I think AM sells some smoked fog light covers

Well actually my original plan was to smoke them out just for the look. Then since it will decrease the brightness, I had planned to put in LEDs to have light still shine through since they're brighter than halogens. So I did it backwards. I just like the fog lights but also going for a somewhat unique look to separate my car. But I also like how the fogs symbolize my GT.

I wouldn't mind having fog lights but I love my blacked Shelby grille. On the other hand i LOVE some hidden fogs

Yeah I love your grille. It'd be nice cause from far it'd look like I didn't have fogs and blacked out, but up close I'm sure you'd still see them. I found some smoked tint for around $10 on eBay. Not sure how good they'll be but it'd allow me to see if I like them or not. Or the covers aren't a bad idea!

There's one yellow mustang GT near me with black stripes and she has covers on hers that kinda go with her stripes

Yeah that probably looks good. Definitely gives an agressive look. I have smoked tint from AM on my side markers and blinker part. You think the AM covers would fit in with the tint? I actually also have matte black stripes in my room waiting to be installed. Spring needs to get here now!! Haha

Like would the covers be the same darkness as your tint that's on your lights already?
