No re-wiring needed. Only change the light buld.

The Orginal Fog light is very yellowish.
I change it to Piaa. It is very WHITE, and match the Head light nicely!!
Attached photo for your ref..

I was thinking about doing the foglights too, but someone told me that the yellow light is actually better for seeing in the fog.

About the headlights, they do look good, but do you still have the angel eyes feature present?

Someone asked about the spoiler. Bre Ced has a breyton front spoiler.

Did you have the factory xenons? If so, how do these HIDs compare.

Cool

I understand that yellow should be better for fog light. I am in HK, there aren't foggy here.
For the Head light, actually the stock xeron light is around 4000k temp, I change it to 6000k temp. The out come is white with little blue.
The angel eye is no change, I wanna to change it to bright white color as well. If you insist to change, the only way I know is to cut the bracket. <I prefer not>

The front lip is from Breyton. Attached another photo.

Bre Ced, your car is looking sweet! You're did a great job with the mods so far...I say so far because I'm sure you're not finished yet
