ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Yellow Capsure or Clear Capsule?

    I got the OEM fogs for my 93 LX...they are LITERALLY from Japan. Heres my dilemma, im installing them sometime next week however i want the most lumen Output possible. So i was thinking, Paint the capsules Yellow and then get Bright White HIDs(6K) and will it look bright yellow? but i kinda dont wanna do that because they are from JAPAN and they dont make these fogs anymore. ORRRRR do i just get the 3k yellows and leave em clear. What will be best? ANybody done this or opinons? thank you

          As for the OP:
          I think regular yellow bulbs is good enough

            To the OP if you paint them yellow and put 6k hids in there you'll end up with lime green lights with a yellowish output. Trust me I have Lexus es300 fogs with 6k fogs and thats what they look like.

              Just throw some 3k bulbs in there. You can either go halogen or HID.

              Luminics makes some pretty darn good halogen bulbs, but for the price of them, you can get an HID kit.

                    definitely yellow bulbs, just in case you ever change your mind and want to change the color of your lights...

                      Because that's a greenish output, I'd say that's illegal in about 99% of all jurisdictions.

                          HID's will give you pretty good output, but I just bought yellow 3k H3's off eBay for $10, they throw out plenty of light and have lasted me 2 years so far.

                            Thats exactly what mine look like, I honestly hate them they do nothing in fog and just get cop attention which sucks, go with 3k like everyone says u won't regret it.
