Is this possible or am i in way over my head. Im guessing ill need to find a company to make a clear lens mold of the foglight ones. From then i do wish to install HIDS in the foglights, but it could become problematic as do they even make projectors that small to fit a small area as the foglights? As i really dont wish to just have clear lens with hids as it will most probably shine on oncoming traffic. Plus projector retrofit will look way better, then again it might fit in the enclosure as ive seen aftermarket projector foglights for sale and they are quite small.

I guess this is a brainstorming thread, as ive had this idea this past week as the foglights arnt fitting in with my headlights and turn signals.

Ps. I do recall TRDGT4 (the guy from NZ) have clear lens for the his gt4 foglights and they looked real good. I guess ill do some research and PM him about it. Only if my internet was not capped it wouldnt be as painful to go on the internet.

one member used the oem fog covers and placed projector fogs onto them, kinda like how many of the new cars have them, a plastic surround housing fitted with fog lamps. that would be an awesome idea. like the civics are a good example. or you could just find a way to mount the 7gc fogs. They are just round lamps that don't follow the lines of the opening anyways. But yea our fogs are not clear on all 3 types all have lines.

but honestly, HIDs in projectors and oem fogs are not bright at all, you should see my friends dc2 integra clear lens fogs, now that makes me crazy. Our lens is not clear on the fogs so the lamp won't be bright, even our projectors contain the light beam. I guess you are getting the idea that non projector headlights are out of control and blind people but that does not apply to our fogs, they are low and not clear.
