I've got an extra set of HID H11 bulbs for cheap if ya need just lemme know. I don't plan on putting them in the Esky so they're just in the garage.

Yup, I will. I think I'm going to order a cheap set of Denali replacement fogs and build the fusion projectors into them. No hurry, but it'll probably only take me a few hours once I get going. Still have to wait on parts to arrive, though.

Thinking about painting the shields so the projectors have color when they are off. Any suggestions on color that would work with my truck?

With a white and chrome truck. I would do white, chrome, maybe black. I dunno what else would work without getting to tacky. Red? Blue? Do you have any colored LEDs on the inside?

Thanks, guys. It'd be easy to make it look bad, that's why I'm just toying with the idea. And no color really goes well with my color scheme, or lack thereof, so I am kind of at a loss. I was thinking I might be able to pull off a subdued and dark metallic blue or a black cherry red kind of thing.

I wouldn't normally even consider it, but I'm busting them open anyway to shave the upper shield (increasing foreground light, in theory).

Anyone know who makes a good 3000k bulb?

I don't think dark colors will show very well. I say go with a lighter color, perhaps, a light electric blue.

Better yet, Portage Glacier Blue.
