Nope. But I (and a lot of others) have changed out the door lights and trunk light for LED's because it looks better when the doors are open. That wasn't a waste of money even though the doors are closed more than open.

A lot of people change their headlights for look even though they are off more than on.

Saying that they are closed most of the time and it's harder to tell they are frameless is a pointless argument IMHO

Well we disagree on the door frames but I do love your fog lights.

How did you get them like that? What kind of bulb?

haha fair enough

if you're talking about my fogs they are just 8000K HID's. I actually JUST sold that kit (like literally mailed it an hour ago)

I changed up the fogs to 6000K to match my headlights, but the pics in my album are 8000K

You need a kit to make your fog lights like that? How much is a new kit? What brand?

Are the 6000K you just got bulbs, or is that a kit as well?

to make the fog lights like what? what exactly are you talking about with the fog lights? If you mean the color then it's just the color temp of the bulbs (8000K for those specific ones)

HID fog kits are anywhere from $20-$120 depending on what quality/name brand you want to get. Those exact ones were from HP Auto, which doesn't exist anymore.

The 6000K I just put in are 55W ballasts from DDMTuning.com (great spot for lights)

If you want to make the fogs HID then you need a ballast kit

I want the fog light to look like the normal head light. Basically have them the same color.

oh yeah that just takes getting an HID kit for the fogs. I have 6000K D2S bulbs for the headlights and a 55W 6000K H1 kit for the fogs (so now it's essentially 4 headlights of the exact same color/light)

6000K is the best mix of useful/classy IMO

since this is WAY OT now haha just PM me if you have any other questions

you two are way off the topic... LoOoL

back to the topic again... I didn't have any issues with road noise the coupe is very quiet (unless you drive at high speeds then you can hear some wind noise) and yes as someone said you can tell that the windows are frameless even when the door is shut
