What are most you guys using to get the JMD yellow fog lights? Not a big fan of tint.

I loved the fact that my 1gen IS had yellow

i'm not a big fan of overlays either..most put in yellow halogen bulbs like nokya's or luminics. others install hid fog kits with 2500-3000k or for those with the funds can spring for a projector retrofit setup..

Plus 10. One can also look at it this way... The yellow fogs are retro and date the car to an 80's look. The original trend left because designs progressed and bigger and better things developed. If not, Lexus and Acura would still be putting them on their cars.

I only like the yellow on white cars . But I still think the matching whites look way more luxurious.

Either way both arent ugly to me.

BTW, I think people turn to look at the lights thinking WTF? haha
