Gen5 Fogs as DRL's.....

Who here is not running there DRL's and instead running there fogs during the day as DRL's? I am but running with nokya 2500Ks (or both at once...let's see the day time pics if you got them)

BTW...i was reading some other threads that mention asking how someone young affords mods and i've put a good $2500 into my car so far my next mods include sway bar new tire time coming up also....

heres some updated pics of my 06 "s" (aka le converted)

(i just recently got rid of that chrome trim under the side windows)

I usually use my DRL and my HID fogs together during the day.

Someone young can afford mods because they don't have payments and other responsibilities that the older people have.

3. it's easy for mine since they are aftermarket but yea basically just re wiring to like your "ACC" sources i.e radio etc... to trigger the relay instead of headlights probably gotta find someone who has rewired there stock fogs to find the right wires :P

Hey more power to you buddy for making it on your own. Personally, I'd pay-off the car before I started to tinker with it, but that's all you. BTW, how's that exhaust sound? I almost put one of those on my old prelude, I wanted to center mount it, but was too broke to do so. Peace!

Looks good. I pay 350 a month for car, 103 insurance...it takes me longer to mod, but it's more saticfying knowing i can do it on my own. major props to you.

Have you considered lowering it?? i think it'd look even better lowered!!
