A little advice needed.
Do I need to spray the inserts of my spotlights?
Or does the orange of the indicator draw ur eyes away from them?

Or does it look better without the in at all?

loose em.

fogs have no real purpose anyway. unless you're one of these people that has them on all the time :wacko: in fog they're pretty wack, you just need to drive slower.

Loose them and use them for brake ducts or air intakes.

This is what tinted 1's will look like.

Tint them... I had mine out for a while. Thought they looked ok but i got fed up of seeing a hole in the front bumper so put them back in.

ditch them!!

if you dont like the hole put some mesh behind it and if you dont want it to stand out then use black mesh

or even better get them smoothed over and sprayed

get them smoothed over and sprayed

Agreed. Looks a million times better without fogs IMO

just spray over your fogs mate with the same black as your car will look good and you can still use them

I like my fogs actually. I found them very useful when I lived in the middle of the oxfordshire countryside as they illuminated bits of tree that had fallen onto the side of the single track roads. Obviously I flicked them off when i dropped my main beam down as other cars approached

You will find it very difficult to mesh them as there's nothing to mesh to... Trust me. Been there, tried that.

Have them smoothed over... Hmmm can be expensive unless they smoothed over your existing foglights (i.e. leaving them intact).

They look good without, would look even better if you smoothed over the front grill and made that black aswell
