Get yellow bulbs then. lol.
Or buy another hid kit from the same place as ur headlights.

Hit up njaremka, he has done the same exact thing I've done, minus hids, but he has the sedan bumper. He is actually where I got the idea from so he could tell you what size fogs u need and blah blah blah.

OH HAI!

i "Used" to have the regular sedan fogs with hids which matched my pro5 headlight conversion with hids. dont have those anymore. now, i run retrofit headlights, with 99-00 yellow civic fogs with hids. nice and bright and JDM, baby!

 

[xDJ DUBx]

You have hid yellow or yellow lens with the hids?

Also, how hard was it to convert to pro5 headlights? I like how it looks a lot and have been pondering.

Very nice, I remember all the help you gave me on my sedan fogs when I installed mine.

Always been a fan of your ride. Not to mention you hooked me up with the sedan lip.

not hard at all, just had to make a harness adapter.

fogs: yellow lens, with 3500 hid kit. (lowest color temp available in H3-mini size)

Hope that helped. lol.

I'm so jackin your idea of the mp3 bumper and foglights. can you post the link store you bought your HID fogs and HID headlights from? i've been looking for a new thing to buy for my car, now I found it lol.

Xentec Bi-Xenon H4(9003) 6000k(ebay, even though I havn't seen them on there in awhile but I think MSPLIFE has a hook up with them, also there is a 5000k set in the FS section for a good ass price, $85. http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123726820)

6000k H3 bulbs for the fogs, I don't remember the brand of the fog light hids but I got them from eBay too, us seller.

Fog lights are from ebay too, Best Quality Autopia "OEM Replacement"...****** liars.

Protege Garage hooked me up with my bump for 99 bucks

If you go this route, you're going to have to take some precautions that I didn't to avoid a massive hid issue with this setup.

 

[Shift2xlr8]

which is what? And how did you get a bumper for 100$?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

The fogs are metal and they were mounted on the metal crash bar so basically they grounded each other out so only one would work and after awhile one would blow so you just have to break the fog and crash bar with something when mounting.

Well I called protegegarage and was like "Hey, I need a msp bumper, how much is it going to cost?"

Ken: 99 bucks

"Ok my CD number is..."

End of story. lol.

I'm not sure if that was with shipping but I bought the bumper and reinforcement bar together and it was 409 shipped.

 

[Shift2xlr8]

Oh you cant just mount it to the stock location on the ES/LX/DX? You gotta buy the whole crash bar and everything?

 

[xDJ DUBx]

You talkin bout the fogs or bumper?

 

[Shift2xlr8]

bumper. I'll figure something out for the fogs, I could prob just run each ground wire somewhere else so they don't ground each other out.

 

[xDJ DUBx]

The plastic crash bar the sedans come with won't fit with the mp3/msp/p5 bumper. You can cut it but it usually looks like s*** so u gotta get the matching crash bar.

haha, don't bet on it. Seriously, that s*** was weird cuz when I had halogen bulbs, they worked perfectly fine. Stupid things.

 

[Shift2xlr8]

I know what you are talking about, the white plastic s*** that is on the metal crash bar. So that plastic piece is 300$? good lord...anyway to find something cheaper?
