Looks great.

Do you have to take the bumper off to change the bulbs?

Thanks.

You could do it through the wheel well, but it is very hard to reach. It took 15 minutes to tke of the bumper and headlights. Its only a dew screws and a few clips.

you can also change the fogs and city lights through the top, you dont have to take off the wheels or bumper. but the headlights, yes, the easiest way is through the wheel well

I got the 8000k headlights from GARAX. They are made in Japan and last very long. I has them in my other car for 3 years and they never burned out. I dont use my fogs so i just disconnected them. I also installed LEDs into my turning signals, day time running lights, rear lisence plate lights, interior map lights and interior door lights. I bought everything on ebay from iJDMtoys. Everything cost me $120 with shipping.

So you don't have any fog lights bulbs right now? I don't know is it just me but it looks like you have something in there what matches your headlights and it looks really good
