I agree with llama (judd), it will look much cleaner if you remove the fog overlays and install yellow fogs.

Yellow fog overlay wasn't my original plan, I installed the 8000K HID for my fogs and found they blind opposite traffic, plus they made my headlights look like regular halogens... our OEM HIDs are known to be yellowish. I added the yellow overlay because of that. Thanks for your suggestion!! I guess I'll be getting a pair of 3000K HID bulbs and remove the overlay.

Actually BOTH! I don't care about those mud flaps, but I heard metal craping noises which really scare me a lot. My car is currently a the shop getting the Fab kit installed and a little raise.

Big difference between static cartoon like appearance and real world dynamic performance parameters.

Question of static fashion (like a paper weight) vs. dynamic function (like an automobile).
