It will really add to the looks for an SYellow - I agree with Ripstang.
Definitely not good for all colors - I think the WVBlue should stay clean

What a great idea. While not a fan of yellow, I was thinking of a smoked charcoal look.

Yellow may look good on a yellow car though.

Sticker City Web Page

here is the Company web page. I actually called and talked to the owner "ANDY" about these, and also about possibly designing a pre cut " tail light outline" piece, so we could have the chrome look in between the tail lights ( or black )...he said the template takes a lot of man hours to make and unless there was a demand for it, he wouldnt do it. He said he had a 2005 Mustang coming in the shop Friday, and he would look at it and see what it would take to make it.


In the mean time, $24.99 for fog light pre cut vinyl shipped.

I am still undecided. :scratch:

yes ponygirl, please try it. I am going to eventually, either tint, replace the whole housing or just the bulbs, but I have always liked amber foglights on all color cars, They really cut through the night when driving. I like.

I installed the yellow ones on my Windveil Blue GT and they look sharp. They are not real dark and obnoxiuos. Will post pics soon. They really do go with the car, at least in my opinion. I am not one to have a trashy looking car by adding a lot of worthless crap. If an item flows with the cars theme and overall looks then I am all for it, if the price is right.

Rene, they are kinda a light yellow when lit at night, but you can see the yellow tint in the light while driving. During the day when the sun hits them they are a little darker. They look very good. My car is Windveil Blue and they look good. Trust me they do not look cheesy at all, they work with the car. I will post pics tomorrow in the sun, okay.

Rene, here is a not so good picture of the yellow fog lights. I actually went by my wifes work to take the photo. She drives my baby once every couple weeks. She loves her CR-V. I will take a better pic tomorrow

By the way, did you get your from the same company? How did you apply them? Like tint? Thanks again

Pete, it may not be the look for everyone, but they are tuff looking in person. During the day with full sun they appear a darker yellow. At night with the fogs on they appear lighter but still give of a yellow/ amber beam.

Rene' I purchased them off Ebay for $19.95 they were mde by Clear Bra and sold by Christi5555. She sells all of Clear Bra's 3m products. Light covers, body panels etc.
They went on real easy, very similar to tint. Small amount of shampoo and warm water applied with a spray bottle, to the lights and back of covers. Put them on and center them and use the squigee ( sp) provided and you are off. Takes just a couple of minutes. They are thick so air bubbles was not a problem just small pockets of residual moisture. The moisture goes away pretty quick, I installed mine yesterday and today they look almost like they were made on there. Good luck. They really look good on this car, not tacky at all

I like the idea. How close does the vinyl fit the lens? Could someone please post a close up picture of one of the fog lights.
