Jersey
Today my freind told me my drivers side foglight was out, I thought damnit I gotta replace the bulb. Right before hand I noticed some condensation in the bulb and I thought ****! After battling with it I finally get the assembly out. There was a ton of murky water in there along with...rocks. How in the HELL did rocks get inside the housing?! The bulb was completely smashed up. :shrug:
 
I have the same issue with my passenger side (except no rocks lol). I'll be replacing with clear fogs with some tint soon enough. It's not anywhere near my priority list as when I do it I'll be buying HID fogs and I don't wanna fork up the $350+ just yet. I have more important things to do. :)

Oh, and don't you love Jersey? Where about in Jersey are you? Welcome to STANGNET!
 
I'm in jersey, too, Cherry Hill. I'm on vacation this week and was gonna try to go to Atco for the first time, but my husband keeps tellin me not to go, I'll break something. Oh, and my stupid driver side foglight's out too, wonder if it had to do with that storm too...I'm gonna go check for rocks...

Go it's the most fun you'll ever have. I havent broken anything yet. It's unlikely you will. We have the same mods yet I'm an automatic and convertible. We should run em. :D
 
When I bought my car one fog light was darker then the other, I thought it was just a smoked one. Well it finally blew out (going down the strip noless), and when I took the old one out it had wate and mud all in it, wiped it out and it was the same color lens just dirty. I want to get a set of the CDC quad foglights, they look awesome!

Would love to, you'll win though, never raced before :D I do go to an office park near my house on alot of Sundays to play with the car, but never been to a track. Looks like rain this Friday, but if it doesn't I'll see if I can get there.

Practice your launches and you'll be fine. I wont be able to go until the 16th at the earliest cause i have graduation this friday.
 
had the same problem with my driver side fog. Blew out because of water in the housing. No rocks! I removed it and cleaned it up, then took silicone and resealed all the seams. New bulb. However, its still darker than the other side, still the original bulb from 1999.

Yeah there will be some silicone going on it this time.
