You guys have convinced me. I'm going to order some lamin-x tomorrow. How do you shape it? Do you just use an exacto or something to cut it to the shape of your lense?

I like the beam pattern of oem style better. I have real oem and there is a shield around the bulb so it makes the light cutoff in the front instead of being like spotlights. Doesn't look good imo.

cutting it exactly's a bitch...mine's all funny looking up close. email the guy over at lamin-x he said they have pre-cuts for our oem/oem style fogs but they're not on the list. email him and ask. i remember him saying you have to call them and ask for it. let us know too. i was too anxious to order and didn't wanna call them. so i just ordered and cut my own.

^^^ u can do that, i think he may charge you more for the pre cut, all you have to do is take the circle cover off of the fogs, use that to trace your oval for the fogs, cut it with regular scicors and it comes out perfect, cuz then you put that circle cover back on and your good to go.
