Decided to start my own picture thread, of me fx. My fx is not 'heavily' modded like how most of the fx's here are. I wish i could but i'm still in my broke college stage. However maybe in a couple of years i'll be able to drop some crazy bling bling onto the whip :wink:
Enjoy! :smile:

This first picture was taken about 1 week after getting the FX.

thanks! I love your rims man... so nice

nice choice in color. looks like you upgraded to 20's?

If i could buy another FX, i think i would buy DG. I love the sapphire, but its really hard to maintain. I have scratches and swirls everywhere on it from bad car washes and just NYC driving. However, when it is cleaned and detailed, it is really nice

good eye, i upgraded to the 2007-2008 OEM 20s. Got them from a former member when he returned his lease :smile:
 
shot from last night.. no new mods or anything.

just a picture of my baby... wet :tongue:

If you read his sig, you will see: 8000k head and fog, and ultra blu parking lights.

sorry stu, i had a typo in my sig which is corrected now. I have 6000K in my Headlights and in my foglights i currently have 8500k bulbs that look more like 5000k than 8500k.

HOWEVER in the pictures shown in the thread, i am running the stock 4300k in headlights and stock fog lights. I don't have any pictures of my 6000k head/8500k fog setup in this thread

The dtrls were replaced with Blue lights (8 led) found on ebay.

i wouldnt recommend these and would recommend leds from autoillumination.com or superbrightleds instead. The ebay ones, i had to modify the connectors a little bit in order to make them work because of the crappy build quality. Ive had them on for 2 months and still going good, except that one side is brighter than the other :embarrassed:

a small mod today...

so i was looking to see what other lighting stuff i can do to my fx before i move onto bigger things (been saving up for an exhaust). I decided to get rid of my Amber turn signal bulbs.. but i didnt have to buy any new bulbs.

Since the dtrl and turn signals use the same bulb type, and since i replaced my stock dtrls with blue leds, they were just lying around. I swapped out the turn signal with the stock dtrl bulbs and now tada, no more yellow color in the turn signal area of headlight. i'm satisfied with this quick, spur of the moment, and simple modification :rofl:

Been trying to improve my photography so here are some pics :biggrin: Negative and positive feedback welcomed!
