you don't want to do a 100W h3 bulb in those hellas or they'll overheat and as soon as water or snow hit them, then the glass will crack. stick w/ 55W h3 bulbs or get different lights.
i have driving and fog hellas right now.

im putting fogs on the bumper, selling the drivings to some ne4roc-ers and then buying some square drivings for the front of my surco and square drivings for the back as well... perhaps trading with an ne4roc member who has square fogs too.

as for the hoop, i pretty much decided to keep waiting

look at me, storing parts in my bedroom, closets, and now my office at work

kewl...

so, not going to use it, or probably just worry about it later.

you can always have it powdercoated black to match the TJM and then you'd really have a unique look.
