My First Mod!

BMB063 · 11-22-2014, 08:52 PM

Just completed my first mod to my e92! Installed some Nokya yellow fogs. I really like the outcome. It was pretty easy, but there were SO MANY bolts/screws to remove from each wheel-well. Wasn’t an issue, but I am used to my last car (Honda Accord) where there were about 4-5. The BMW had about 10 which is ok, just didn’t expect that many.

My only question would be that I noticed that the driver's side fog seems to be aimed down a little more than the other. It wasn’t as noticeable with the stock lights. but I noticed it more here. Any suggestions? Let me know!

Here are the ones I took tonight:

Almost forgot, I have the original OEM fogs if anyone would be interested in buying them. Make me an offer!

Looks good! I've been using Nokya for years... the color of their yellow, I guess. Also got them in my DRLs.

While driving at night I can barely tell they are yellow. If no one told me, I probably wouldn't even notice. But I do like them. It's a perfect contrast and tasteful if you ask me

Nice job, especially on a white car like that bro.

As for me, I've been through pretty much every halogen solution- without satisfaction.

PIAA Xtreme yellow fogs, which were arguably the best on the market right now for an H11 55W bulb.

I got an 535 F10 loaner a few weeks back, and that thing had some incredibly nice bright LED fog lights. Someday, I hope to retrofit some nice bright yellow LED fogs that work without errors in our vehicles- am I just dreaming vendors?

Do you remember which kit number you bought and if it requires a resistor?

Looks clean!

^ I was satisfied with going with a halogen bulb since the housing is relatively small and shaped well. Heard about the PIAA bulbs, just heard more about the Nokyas. LEDs would be a good option, as long as it still looks pretty OEM, IMHO.

^ Yeah, here is the link. They were just plug and play. Nothing needed but the bulb!
