    looks good! in photos i do like the white better, but have been running amber fogs in my vx for a while, and do really like them in person, a tough decision for sure! id say stick with white though

    glad the smaller LED bulbs are working out for you! i'll email him and do the same as you did and exchange them. did you have your original packaging for the blown out bulbs? his website says you need it, not sure if i have mine

    now you need to get some spotlights for your brush guard to complete the look!

    +1 - Looks great Sue, especially with the white fogs!

    Maybe you could post pics of the HID ballast locations you used under the hood?

    One is on top of the fuse box above the R/F fender well. (Sue took pics of the fuse diagram for future reference)
    The other is stuck to the engine side of the air box.(where the air filter lives)
    Since it's below the filter, it could be fastened to the airbox with screws if the supplied double stick tape ever loosens up.

    Since this kit came with only double stick tape, (no brackets as I've seen in other kits) my choices were kinda limited.

    my HID ballasts are mounted directly under each headlight (behind the fog lights) i used double sided tape and zip ties (drilled a small hole on either side of the ballast, then painted over the holes to prevent rust)
