IPL/Aerodynamic Bumper Swap Idea.
Did you guys go with 35w or 55w HID kits for your fogs? I'm planning on tapping into my 08 factory fogs that are in the headlights, and possibly removing the bulbs so they don't turn on anymore. Is the 55w kit going to get too hot and melt something? lol

I used 35w and man they are bright , I think the difference is brightness unsure but I'm sure 55w put out more heat and would be to much for the small fog lights. Most use and always recomend 35w.
Vossen, did you end up going with the slim ballasts or the regular? Still debating what color hue I want to go. Do you still have the kit for sale?
Ordered my bumper bout a week ago have been looking at alot of pics. And was wondering if the front is actully higher then the side skirts and if that effects lowering the car? Thanks also maybe just me but does this front bumper make the front look longer?
If you lower the car it should be ok without the sides. Yes the aero bumper sticks out about two inches longer than the regular bumper.

Aero bumper is noticeably higher than aero sides. When lowering car make sure to lower the front a touch more. I think our cars are actually 1 inch higher in the rear at stock height. Having coils is HUGE. For those of you with colors that are not offered on aero sides painting should be around 100-150, well worth it IMO.
Ballast size doesn't matter, there is plenty of room for the larger size, there is a good size opening on both sides on the frame rail, that will hold them and leave plenty of room for the cable length.
