CDC lip is the cheaper way to go but cs/gt looks the best imo.

And I don't know about bulb size, sorry.
or you could add a relay wiring harness to the headlight circuit having them come on with headlights

or add it to the ign on circuit and have them come onwhen the car is running for daytime driving lights, (which is what we are going to do) just do not tap into the cars wiring without adding a relay to run the additional lights or you could overload the cars factory wireing harness

or you could add a whole new switch tot he system, I had thought about adding a foot controlled switch for high beams.....

yea, I'm a gadget junkie <g>

BTW if I can attach apic I can show the swap

Nothing personal guys but IMO the CDC spoiler looks cheap. Go with the CS/Boss 302 spoiler and add the 302 splitter when they become available.

My only issue with the GT/CS front valence is how bland it looks from the side view. Directly from the front, it looks awesome, but something about the side..it just looks sunken in to me.

That's why you'll want to add the Boss 302 splitter.

Then again, I've yet to understand why people debate matters of personal preference. One mans POS is another mans thing of beauty.

The 302 valance looks best painted IMO. It would look even better when done on a red, blue or white car.

Bulbs for the GT/CS fogs are H11. I think they are a bit dim. They are however an HID style with a deflector. I saw where someone replaced the H11 halogen with a 6000k HID kit for H11 single beams and they looked great. They were as bright as the headlights but directed(projector). I am thinking of doing it myself.
