Hey how you doing man? I'm about to get some fog light projectors and do some similar things as yours. I gotta question tough, how come your fog light lenses are so clear? Do you know how can I make mine clear or where to get some? Thanks

Well, the whole Fog light housing that I have is custom made by Vik (Dawgz ). Putting projectors in does require having clear lens. The lens are Lexan plexiglass that is thicker and stronger. The projectors he use are from an is300/es300. This is his thread explaining the build. So, if you have any questions regarding them I would pm him.

This one when he added the LED Strip.
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=45999&hilit=LED+Fog&start=60
Overall all that hard work and credit goes to him. It's sad that he had to part out but, now it's at a good home. I did install HID 3k bulbs in the projectors since I had the extra ballast mounted there from the old fog lights. So, might as well. I know he said that it will take away the overall look with the LED but, guess what. The projectors just aims over them still making the LED visible and light output is great no glare what so ever. It also gives a deep rich yellow tone on the fog lights that everyone wants.

Little teaser...
About 11 months of ownership. I finally got my rear end on (but no sides yet :( ). Hopefully I can get the sides paint and have my kit complete. I still have to adjust the passenger side a little bit. Car is a little dirty.
Image
Image
Also, I did take out the Solara emblem but after couple of months I couldn't stand the little paint chip it left. So, I bought another one and painted it black.
Image
Don't forget my DIY black Corners. BTW I haven't lost any light output with the corners. All I need are black housing headlights to complete the front. Then I'll be all stealth up front.
Image
Yes, the car still needs to be drop. Got the TRD Struts and Teins. Never had the time and money.

Thanks. Next month on December 19 will be my 1st anniversary with the Lara. Very happy how far I come with this car. It is the best car I bought reliability wise and you'll never see someone here with the same car that looks this good. I don't think I could ever pass this down to my younger brother now that I think of it.
So that means you guys won't see me leaving here anytime soon. 8) :drinking:

Car is looking sweet! Just catching up to the thread... and when I saw the GSX Eclipse, my first thought was, if you drive over a Spam Omusubi, you're going to rip your exhaust out! BWAAAAAHAHHHHh ha ha ha!



Keep up the good work!

14 more days to 1 year anniversary with the Lara. :drinking:
Got shots by the beach. This beach is about 5min walk from my house. Notice my Revos finally have center caps and Red Pins.

Recently I took out the tinted tails and turn it back to stock. Man I haven't seen the car with the kit and stock tail lights. All I can say Stock looks good. I replace some of the TRD badges and bought a badge that is similar to the TRD Scion badge on the trunk. These I still have to take photo of. I'm still trying to get the sides done by the end of the year. As for a drop I'm in no rush even though I have the parts laying around. Family comes first.

Sorry, for the confusion. That's why I listed in sig that it was drop with PS. But, after the holidays I'll take care of that. :wink:
