TwinsPoppa is on a distinguished road
Pics - HID Fogs, AIv3.0 vs ebayAE and whiter DRLs

What I have installed in the pics:

Turn Signals/Parking lamps = Solaris Invisibulbs (non-ultrabright)
Angel Eyes = Angelibright v3.0 (left) & Ebay AE 6000K (right)
DRLs = Xenon-match bulb from angelibright.com (left) & stock H1 bulb (right)
Bi-xenons = stock bulbs on both
Fogs = DDM Tuning HID Kit, H11 bulbs, 35W, 6000K

No Headlights, no fogs (Left w/o flash & Right with flash): All pics without flash exaggerate the brightness - lights are NOT this bright!


All lights on with flash:


Angel Eyes (w/o flash): Left = AIB v3.0 vs. Right = $45 Ebay AEs


DRLs w/o flash: Left = Xenon-match bulb vs. Right = stock bulb


Color Temp Comparison w/o flash: Left = Stock Bi-xenons only vs. Right = with HID 6000K fogs


AIB v3.0 vs. Ebay AE LED bulb:


Xenon-match vs. stock H1 bulb:


Observations:
- HID fog upgrade on 04+ models does NOT require cutting of fogs
- HID fog upgrade w/o projectors does NOT mean you will blind people
- Pics of lighting w/o flash exaggerate direct light sources. Now, I realize the AIB v3.0 LED bulbs are NOT as bright as the pics - but they're still the brightest available.
- Xenon-match bulbs from angelibright.com ($66 shipped on sale) are marked GP Thunder. GP thunder are normally $20 shipped from Ebay.
- Original reason I bought the new DRL bulbs were I heard from LI-X5 that they effectively turn off the DRLs but will still function as flashers. These don't turn off the DRLs but LI-X5 is double-checking his bulb type. Maybe I have the wrong ones but I'll update this post once I hear back from him.

Hope this info. helps.
