The lights have a slight hint of blue in person and are very bright. Hard to see in the pics.

Haven't installed it yet. Part of my mods waiting to be installed.

 

Pics of my lights from iJDMtoy.

 

Did you have any difficulty installing the iJDM fogs? I purchased a pair of the $36 set that were made for the fog housing (so as not to blind oncoming traffic). One of the bulbs actually broke in half. I had trouble getting the bulb to seat correctly and then turn CW into position. Just wondering if anyone else had issues. I emailed iJDM to get a refund. Not happy with the quality although this is the only set of bulbs I purchased from them

Thanks for any help you can provide.

 

I had no issues at all but I bought the HID bulb kit for it. What bulbs did you buy? Also, did you install them from underneath or remove the grill? I took my grill off and air dam pieces to get to it easily which gave me a lot of room to work with. Then just apply enough pressure evenly to the housing and turn slowly to secure the bulb.

 

That may have been my problem. I didn't remove grill or air dam pieces. Honestly I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to mods on any vehicle. I also have small enough hands/arms to get down to the fog bulb housing without removing anything. However, the angle was a bit awkward and applying pressure while rotating the new bulb into place proved difficult. I actually broke the new bulb away from the black harness piece of the bulb assembly The bulbs I purchased were not HID I don't believe. Just LED replacement bulbs:

I emailed the customer service for the company. We'll see what they say. In the meantime and in the spirit of not accepting defeat, I ordered opt7 bulbs for both my projector and fog housing.

 

Opt7 are better but pricier. I never had to return anything to iJDMtoy so don't know how well the take care of their customers. Hopefully they refund you the money.

 

Your build is my kinda style. White with black bits.
Nice work.

 

Update: Tinted windows

 

Where did you get your black lug nuts ?

 

I got them off of eBay for only $85 shipped for all locking lug nuts all the way around. The part number is 73631TBC and they're Gorillas. Here's the link to the listing.

wonder if these are good, they say they fit, $28.00 not gorilla though

Those will fit. It's the same specs as the gorillas and they're black which is a plus!

 

Is your 1st pic with the trd rims without a lift? Did the tires rub at all

 

That's correct, no lift and no rub at all. Rides pretty smooth too with these tires.

 

Nice, going the same route but no lift just yet, something about not making my 1st payment yet and lifting it doesn't sound rite lol

 

Look Awesome but just can stomach that roof rack! na na naaa naaa!
