Fog light Mods?

I was looking around but didn't really see much. I was wondering if there is anything you can do to the fog lights to give them a little flare? Is it legal to tint them like the nightshade for the tail lights?

since your fog lights arent your main source of light i am guessing you can do whatever you want to them..

So you have fog lights now or you want to add fogs? I made me some LED fogs that I like a whole lot. Good luck.

I have them now and was wondering if there was anything cool I could do to change them, mod them, make them a little cooler. This spring I start on my very first mods. Up until the point my car is completely stock and I haven't touched a thing, so I'm starting with getting a high rise wing, then onto nightshade, then black racing stripes, and I don't know what after that.

Not true. I have blue strobes in my cobalt. Grill and the windshield and clear strobes in headlights and red strobes in the tail lights.

The law depends on where you live also. I know in Ohio, you can not have red or blue shining anywhere but down. AKA underbody neons are fine. But, the blue tinted headlights are fine? That confuses me a little bit. But thats the Ohio law.

HID is a whole kit you have to buy which include ballast and bulbs. But then again a fog light is not ment for far distances they are ment to light up like a wide are and short so you can see the road better in bad weather conditions.
