I love the yellow fogs big time, but now I want HID's to offest it a little bit. Either way not too bad! The last little thing I'm going to do before building the motor is my side markers... more to come!

So the last two days I spent a little bit of time doing the side markers.. They came out good, wired so they are on with the running lights and blink sequential of the turn signals....

Typically the side markers are only lit when in turn signal mode. Is that just your personal choice to have them lit in parking and turn mode?

Was there really a need to roll the fenders? I know a 7.5" width is pushing the envelope on fitting in the wheel well on a 92-95 Civic. What is the offset?

Yea tire is stretched a tiny tiny bit, and I rolled the fenders just incase, figured I had access to the tool why not take advantage of it, also never know how low I might want to go! Honestly off hand I can't remember the offset, I think it was +28, they're literally just at the exterior of the fender, when I get a chance I'll snap a pic of the flushness lol

As for the side markers, yes, personal preference.... Just like the way it looks with all the "parking lights" on....

Still waiting on more partsssss, unfortunately going to cali all next month so she will have to wait until march for her heart transplant ;]
