Look for user big-al on this board. He has a set (at least they look like they are HID) and they are pretty darn bright.

it's too big, looks like the rally car's foglights. i would like to get a pair too but it would be cooler if it's the Celica's size, round and small. but that's pretty cool!

D@#$, now that's what I'm talking about. That's the look I want my Z to have. How hard was it to install? Is that the original front bumper? It looks different.

that's just a different lip, same bumper just with aftermarket lip. i dont remember which brand it is though...

in fact, im thinking about buying a pair from Toyota or TRD. cuz Celica action package comes with a pair of HID foglights made by TRD. smaller than that and it has a prizm tint on the lenses. pretty cool looking.

Those round fog lights look great. They kind of remind me of the Ferrari 205GT's from the early '60's.

I was planning on putting in some Xenarc HID lowbeam foglights (http://www.sylvania.com/xenarc/x1010.htm) in the same manner as big-als, but I really like those rounds ones....
What kind of kit was placed into the lamp head?

I've always had hard times finding nice style aftermarket HID fogs.

toykilla, supp, when can i see your fogs?

juhko, i use some cheap 8000k diamond white H1 kit, forgot what brand it was.

just to clarified the mixup for others: you dont have to buy a "HID foglight kit" as a whole, but rather just find the type of housing you like, disgard the halogen bulb and replace with your favorite HIDS. its much cheaper this way cus "HID foglight" goes for about $800 to $1100
