last winter I mounted D2R HIDs in my clear bumper lights (with provisions for the high amount of heat) and it was not worth it. The lenses are just not designed to reflect light like that and have good output. All it did was blind people. I had to remove the plastic of the lens on the top of the light, and mounted an aluminum plate to dissapate the heat. It didnt help, the housing still melted... proving that the heat from the capsules was just way too much for the lenses.

Dont put HIDs in your bumper lights...

NO cars come from the factory with HID fog lights... its a trick your mind is playing on you... the HIDs are so bright, it looks like the fogs have them too.
