Thumbs up PICS: HIDs, clear side markers, LEDs, !emblem

newly installed:

- 6000K HIDs in Fogs; very easy kit to install - plugged right up and mounted the ballasts in 2 pockets located in the front bumper with heavy duty velcro. these are from board member 'fenix99'

- front & rear clear side markers - tried both regular and LED bulbs, but IMO they look bad in clear markers, so i'm not running bulbs in there.

- LEDs in door (red) & liscense plate (white; no pics of that)

- removed ws6 emblem, no more 'clone' - just ordered a LS1, Z06 style, emblem for the empty spot.

excuse the dirtyness and lovely grey sky weather.

Does that fog light kit have everything? Like the housing?

How to you do the license plate thing? *goes and searches*

I like the rear better w/o the emblem...don't tack on some other crap.

Its NOT dirty...at least from the pics.

the kit doesn't have housings, but everything you need. it's good to go in the stock housings too btw, which i have in the pics.

i'll show pics of the license plate led a little later.

... and i want to try the LS1-Z06 emblem, doesn't have to stay, but i think it will look nice. it's factory correct style, not a knock-off. it's small and with my silver, it shouldn't stick out anyway:

thanks,

the clear corners for the rear are all over e-Bay.

they quit making the ones for the front, and the only place I could find them is afterthoughauto. sucks, because i used to have them - and sold them, then ended up paying double what i did the first time around.

why are your tips sticking out sooo far in the side shot?

they weren't like that until i put on the magnaflow catback and kept the corsa tips. i was going to get them welded back, but i've lived with it for a few months now since it doesn't look too bad and they're aligned (which is a huge pain in itself to get right). i will fix it eventually though.

That car looks ******* badass. What % tint? I love the HIDs in the fogs and the black rear filler!

I think it looks better without any badging at all on the rear. Wouldn't even put the LS1 badge on there. I also would replace the DRL bulbs with clear bulbs and past that I'd just leave it alone. The car is gorgeous.
