Rob - I think si was making reference to the post above his, rather than retrofitting in general

UF - I agree. Whenever I'm driving a car with fogs at night on country roads, I use the fogs as well as main beams - Especially near my parents or in some of the Hertfordshire backwaters where the roads merge seamlessly into the mud and ditches.
where did the added line and pic of the corvette come from?

not my post, man thats confused me .

They were off a fellow member last year, couldnt afford them but they were they only wheels I really liked so I couldnt not have them.

I dont think there are that many in the UK but could be wrong

That looks like it has the DRL led strip fairy lights under the headlight too...

The problem with fogs, is that you will of course use them at night without fog, and you may *think* that they look cool, but everyone else on the road will think you're a prick!

i think its more of a styling thing and to remove the ugly black bits then to add value/wealth to the car,
You could always remove the ugly black bits, replace them with grills and pipe the air somewhere useful.

See Here!

I have now piped the air to the intake for my SC.

I got them off OllieCRX from Northern Ireland last July

they needed powder coating though which cost about £220 cash on top
