Default Bored and looking for mods:

I've run out of normal mods, so looking to do some silly mods that may still have some functional benefit.

Noticing how much I miss the adaptive headlights sometimes when driving the S2000 at night.

Really like the look of some of the LED foglights


But didn't see a point with the excellent HIDs of the S2000.

Then was thinking that if mounted at a 45 degree angle, they could give some lateral light on turns and take over some of the function of adaptive lighting.

Any thoughts?

I thought they'd fit well in an AP1 bumper following the lines of the corner and placed in the "fake brake ducts."

Personally i dont like it, thats border line rice. kind of along the lines of underbody neons.

i heard you could put foglights in the fake brake ducts if your looking for something along those lines but i guess that qualifies as 'ordinary'. although ive almost never seen an s2k with foglights. sure they wont help you see the road any better but theyll probably make your car look nicer.

But angled 45 degrees, they would help you see the road better on turns.

Was watching a "Dragon" video run in the dark and you couldn't see around any of the turns...

Lol I've never had a problem seeing around turns in the s2000, the headlights already illuminate everything 60 degrees off to the side of the car as well as the moon.....
