    Yeah, I think all the 510s have the 55 watt bulbs. I once had (not 510s) PIAA plasma ion fogs. The glass lens had a special coating that casts a yellow light but they had a blueish look when they were off. Is that the way your 510s look? Is the glass fluted?

    The SMRs are different. Its a white light, about 4,000 kelvin, with a clear, non-fluted lens. The light beam is shaped by the reflector not the glass lens.

    I took my bug shield off...leave yours off...looks much better IMO. Bug shields look like big unibrows on our trucks...lol

    And $500 for her car or your truck?

    If its your truck why not just say fuck it? Aren't you getting a new bumper anyways?

    Hell no man haha i wouldn't pay 500 or anything for that matter to fix that whiskey dent. Maybe get some touch up paint to keep it from rusting..but thats it.

    The Elite bumper will cover it up perfectly :D

    The 500 will be the min deductable ill have to pay the insurance company..:pout: Sucks..


    On a lighter note..my 510 PIAAs came today! :woot: Wish i was gonna be home this weekend to wire them up! Will be SOOOO much easier then my 240s since these came with all the wiring stuff needed :D

    and yes Jon..i HAVE PICS!..calm down..haha :D
