I am always very leery of buying car mods via eBay, but I think I may have found a couple diamonds in the rough. I would like your opinion on both of these.

Front Turn Signal LED

LED Fog Light

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I don't care for the fog lights, but the side markers are cool. There's a guy on here, believe is name is Ares or something like that, he makes them for I think the same price or close to it. If you get them try to support the members instead of Ebay.

Just my $0.02

I'm not a fan of making the front bumper side reflector into a light. But what ever toots your horn.

The SIX LED's strikes me as wrong but know why it's done. I would have thought THREE LED's would have been a better styling choice to match the three theme in the Z logo.

Six LED's will drop 13.6V without the need for a resistor.

I actually like the fog lights, It's not those huge rounded fog lights you see people put on the Z.

I would actually research on those fog stripes.

As for the side markers, I would only get those if I was wiring them into the turn signal wires.

No way...I love the contrast...I've seen all black and the LED's looked lost on the bumper. I also have a one of a kind DIY...satin silver wrap a round 1/2" polyurethane grill strips.

Nice, I'd definately get those side marker rather then the one the OP mentioned. Those Smoked Reflectors for $110 looks hot. I'd still wire them into the signal wires though.

I have those sidemarkers hooked to turn signal, 4 way, parking and lights. They alternate with the other turn signal. I like them, they go with the door handles (amber / silver).
