VIP-style headlight setup question for my 2gs
I bought a 02 pearl white GS (with a dreadful wing) back in november, and recently dropped it. My goal is to eventually go VIP like all the other million 2gs's on the street.
My question is on my headlight setup. I put 8k HID's in the headlamps, 3k HID's in my fogs, but the only thing throwing my setup off is the inner lights in between the headlights, they're still that stock yellowish color.
If I'm going for a VIP look what do most VIP people do about the smaller, inner day-time running lights? do they do same color HID's as headlights? do they do just some solid white regular lamps? Its annoying that I have 3 colors in the front of my car as far as lights go. Thanks in advance, PS PICTURES OF SETUPS WOULD BE NICE!!!!
Included is a picture of my car at night after the drop, didn't turn my lights on so you cant see it but the question is elaborate enough to see the picture in your head.

I did a bit of searching although I'll admit that I didnt EXTENSIVELY search, most of my searching was on google so i can hit mutiple forums. As for the "vip look" If you didn't read my post I said I just bought the car, some people on here aren't ballin like everybody else, the drop cost me 1500 bucks alone which took a while to save for. Jeez wasn't expecting some rude *** people on here wtf is this houston-imports?

I didn't mean literally VIP SETUP as in there is only one way to do it, I meant as in, the DRL's make the front of my car look tacky as ****, I figured there's a few different ways to go about it and was looking for opinions from people who have VIP setup GS's. There's obviously no generic way of doing things I just didn't wanna look "Ricer" if you will. Ricer to me is 5k HID headlamps, 5k HID DRL's, 5k HID fogs and throw 5k color'd lights every where else on the car, you dig?

actually ricer is 8k... not 5k. 5k is whiteish with a slight IF that blue hint.
sounds like you got your definition of ricer and VIP all mixed up...
people here are annoyed by people trying to go for a "VIP" look thinking they can pull it off with $100... it doesnt fly like that. just saying.

I'm sorry you're right dude, I mixed my HID numbers up, I have the WHITE color'ed lights, NOT the purple ones. thats my fault. Anyway like I said I'm far from finished, if anything I'm just beginning the build. Mods please close thread I've found some threads in lighting section as directed to. I understand you frustration vwynn but your attitudes on this forum are really annoying, I came looking for help, not to get bashed. My HID's are white, my fogs are that greenish yellow color.

If you actually searched, you would have found this thread and we wouldn't be having this conversation. Do yourself a favor and look at this thread and choose one you like
