Wanted that Dual Fog Light look without the price?


haha, this is kind of a janky way to do it but it didn't cost me a penny!

So this is temporary until i fabricate a bracket and mount some real LED lights in there.


clean em up and try to scuff em as good as i can but they are glass so..




Use airbrush mask over them and a protractor set at 1in to lay perfect circular 2 inch holes




ready for paint




This is NINE coats of paint! 2 primer, 4 black base, 1 black onyx, 2 clear.

Why so much? 1. I wanted to make sure the yellow light / bulb didnt shine through the paint.

also, because i know one hard rock chip can make this look all bad. 

Fogs take a lot of abuse




Back on the car!




Oil Change this weekend.


Score! 3 OEM Oil Filters for $13 ( ebay )
