Great idea with the yellow fogs. Hope everything fits and seals up snug. Nice to have the pictures too. Great show thread.

Wetsanded my fog lenses today!





before





after



before



after

I sanded with 1000, 1500, then 2000 grit. Then I used 3M rubbing compound on them followed by Meguiar's PlastiX. There's still some imperfections but I don't mind as much since it's the fog lights. I'll make sure I get everything perfect for the HID retrofit.



I don't like how the projector looks weak behind the vertical lines on the lens. I might sand down the lines directly in front of where the fog projector will be.



100 watt H3 bulb output with no lense in front. It does look brighter than the stock bulb. I'm worried about stuff getting hot though.



A mock up of what I want it to look like.

Now to answer some questions.
The strut bar was for a Camry but it fits 99-03 Solaras and 97-01 ES300's.
I got the clear corners on Ebay as well but I took the amber off the bulbs.

Thanks for the comments guys!

Looks very nice!!!
I'm looking for the 92-94 fogs for my 95...are they a direct replacement? Also about how much did you pay for the pair?

The yellow fogs should be a direct fit onto any '95-'96 ES. A member here (juan01) did this mod on his '96 ES. Do a search under his name and you should find some pics of his ES.
